 No.  The restriction are for multi-threaded processes not single 
 threaded processes.  The test case is still single threaded when fork() 
 is called.
 
 Also pthread_sigmask() / sigprocmask() are supposed to be identical in 
 single threaded applications.  Replacing pthread_sigmask() with 
 sigprocmask() changes the resulting behaviour.
