static void dummy(int sig) {}

struct timespec t = { 2, 0 };

signal(SIGCHLD, dummy); // Pick one
signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN); //
nanosleep(&t, &t);

}
* Testing on 2.4.20 and on 2.6.35-rc4:
* With SIG_DFL, nanosleep is not interrupted by SIGCHLD. Ok.
* With dummy handler, nanosleep is interrupted by SIGCHLD. Ok.
* With SIG_IGN, nanosleep is NOT interrupted by SIGCHLD.
* It looks like sleep's workaround for SIG_IGN is no longer needed?

* No can do.

* "nanosleep()" is implemented in a bad way that makes it impossible to
* restart it cleanly. It was done that way because glibc wanted it that way,
* not because it's a good idea. [snip...]
