klibc - Nov 2003 - [PATCH] small addition to ia64's archsignal.h

Hi Peter,

I need this small patch to get udev to compile against the latest
klibc.  I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do, but it fixes the
compile.

thanks
mh

I would assume that on ia64 you could have a 64-bit sig_atomic_t.

(I *think* sig_atomic_t is supposed to be the biggest integer which can 
be atomically written in a signal handler.)

why did you define sig_atomic_t only for ia64?
It seems glibc defines sig_atomic_t just to an int, so why is it not for
all archs? tdb in udev requires a sig_atomic_t.
