sig:action abstracts struct sigaction, clib function ::sigaction and so on.

Is sigaction safe with threads? Doesn't it set the process-wide signal handler? If so, that won't work if a process might be doing writes from multiple threads. I've been doing a bit of reading along the lines of what Jeremy suggested, and it seems like best thing at this stage is: - On linux use sendmsg with the MSG_NOSIGNAL flag. - On Mac OS X use setsockopt with SO_NOSIGPIPE option. - Solaris ... ??? Unfortunately the best option at this stage does seem to be globally ignoring the signal. Cheers, Chris
