/*
* An OS-independent signal() with, whenever possible, partial BSD
* semantics, i.e. the signal handler is restored following service
* of the signal, but system calls are *not* restarted, so that if
* "pcap_breakloop()" is called in a signal handler in a live capture,
* the read/recvfrom/whatever in the live capture doesn't get restarted,
* it returns -1 and sets "errno" to EINTR, so we can break out of the
* live capture loop.
*
* We use "sigaction()" if available. We don't specify that the signal
* should restart system calls, so that should always do what we want.
*
* Otherwise, if "sigset()" is available, it probably has BSD semantics
* while "signal()" has traditional semantics, so we use "sigset()"; it
* might cause system calls to be restarted for the signal, however.
* I don't know whether, in any systems where it did cause system calls to
* be restarted, there was a way to ask it not to do so; there may no
* longer be any interesting systems without "sigaction()", however,
* and, if there are, they might have "sigvec()" with SV_INTERRUPT
* (which I think first appeared in 4.3BSD).
*
* Otherwise, we use "signal()" - which means we might get traditional
* semantics, wherein system calls don't get restarted *but* the
* signal handler is reset to SIG_DFL and the signal is not blocked,
* so that a subsequent signal would kill the process immediately.
*
* Did I mention that signals suck? At least in POSIX-compliant systems
* they suck far less, as those systems have "sigaction()".
