if necessary. This removes the need to malloc large fd_set's for selecting
on high fd's (larger than FD_SETSIZE at libc compile time).
The syscall adaptive stuff only happens on the very first call. SIGSYS
is masked, and if the call to poll fails with ENOSYS, then we use select
for the life of the program. If poll does not fail with ENOSYS, then we
always use poll and skip the once-off signal masking gunk.
This may be overkill, but it saved my neck a few times while working on
multiple different sets of kernel sources, some with poll, some without.
reopen it after strip has finished. This makes it work when
/usr/bin/strip replaces the file rather than doing an in-place edit
(such as the binutils-2.8 strip, which is a variation of objcopy).
This is necessary if install(1) and strip(1) are going to cooperate
on an ELF system.
sys/poll.h). Just provide a link, it's close enough. :-) In an ideal
world the prototype for poll() would be in <poll.h> but some code seems
to expect it in <sys/poll.h>, so we can't win there.
adapted from NetBSD.. However, there are some differences in the tty
system that are big enough to cause their code to not fit comfortably.

detail is passed back and forwards). This mostly came from NetBSD, except
that our interfaces have changed a lot and this funciton is in a different
part of the kernel.

The implementation is done (unlike what i've originally been
contemplating) by reparenting kids of processes that have the
appropriate bit set to PID 1, and let PID 1 handle the zombie. This
is far less problematical than what would seem to be ``doing it
right'', for a number of reasons.
Of our currently shipping PID-1-intended programs, 50 % fail the above
assumption. ;-) (Read this: sysinstall doesn't do it right. This is
no problem as long as no program called by sysinstall actually uses
SA_NOCLDWAIT.)
ToDo: . clarify the correct SA_* flag inheritance, compared
to other systems,
. decide whether the compat cruft (osigvec(9)) should
deal with new system additions or not,
. merge OpenBSD's SA_SIGINFO implementation. ;)
