I.e. sigsuspend() must check pending signals not blocked by "set" argument and raise ones if exists? Something like

  if(there is pending unblocked signals) {
	 raise(that signals);
	 return 0;
  }
  wait for a new signal forever;
  return 0;

Am I right? Does anybody knows the exact sigsuspend() semantics?
