Hi All,

I've downloaded the latest cygwin snapshot (actually have been doing so for 
some
time in anticipation) and as usual run my series of tests which examine 
threading
signaling and sockets on cygwin. And I'm very happy to say that the signal
handling and pthreads issue brought up a couple of months ago 
(http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-12/msg00291.html)
has finally been resolved with the cygwin snapshot dated 31st January. I 
would like
to thank the person(s) who contributed the fix, even though not many 
applications
currently would find problems with it, as more and more applications are 
written
using threads and signaling rather than processes and signaling, this 
certain
problem would have inevitably become apparent.

Regards


Arash Partow
