 David, John,
 
 maybe it would be beneficial to the general programmer public to add
 something similar to the NOTES section of the following man page to our
 man page for sigwait:
 http://condor.wesleyan.edu/cgi-bin/man.cgi?section=2&topic=sigwait
 
 Using the original example, it would mean adding something like the
 following code to get the desired behavior:
 
 void dummy_handler(int signum)
 {
         return;
 }
 
 void *thread(void* unused) {
   struct sigaction sa;
   sa.sa_handler = dummy_handler;
   sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask);
   sa.sa_flags = 0;
   sigaction(SIGWINCH, &sa, NULL);
 .
 .
 .
