*snickers* no, that definitely doesn't fix the problem:
$ ~/test_sigprocmask
signo = -1 result not sane (-1 != -1, errno: -22 != EINVAL)
signo = 0 result not sane (-1 != -1, errno: -22 != EINVAL)
signo = 1 result not sane (-1 != 0, errno: -22)
signo = 9 result not sane (-1 != 0, errno: -22)
signo = 17 result not sane (-1 != 0, errno: -22)
signo = 65 result not sane (-1 != 0, errno: -22)
signo = 64 result not sane (-1 != 0, errno: -22)
signo = 66 result not sane (-1 != -1, errno: -22 != EINVAL)
