Here is a fatter problem I had under OS/2: Signal name generation was
completely busted.

Two reasons: One row in signal.h looked like

#define SIGTY void

(surrounded by some strange ifdefs). This stopped signal.c from
working. The second problem was that the batch file for signal
generation was named signal.cmd, and it was called during
./signal
If you note that this row appears inside signal.cmd, you note a very
nice recursion ;-).

Solutions: global rename
signal.cmd -> signal_cmd
(signal.sh does not work too :-(), and adding
&& $3 !~ /void/
to the extraction lines. Just in case below is the patch for
Configure:

Best,
Ilya
