Re: [Speedycgi-users] compile for Mac OS X ?

[Sam H. <sa...@da...>]

Looks like the problem is a bug in the Mac OS X sigpending() system call.
It looks like it's fixed in OS X 10.2.  The 10.2 release notes
(http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2053.html) say:

    A problem where the routine sigpending() was not returning the
    pending signals in the sigset_t pointed to by its parameter has been
    corrected. (r. 2831405).

I've put a workaround into the SpeedyCGI code, and with that I was able to do
a successful "make test" on OSX 10.1.  You can get the workaround from the
SpeedyCGI cvs tree, or manually patch the 2.20 code as follows:

    - Edit src/speedy_sig.c

    - Find the line:
	if (sigpending(&set) == -1)

    - Right *before* this line, insert:
	sigemptyset(&set);

Since sigpending on MacOSX is essentially a no-op, if we clear out the
signals first, then we get no pending signals, and we don't get stuck
in sigsuspend().
