Last issue resolved. I am posting so there is a complete thread for
anyone that stumbles on this in the future.
F_SETSIG IS working...what is NOT working (as it did in 2.4) is the
interaction between clone() and getpid() in child processes.
This issue altered the control of my program and made it look like I was
not receiving signals.
I'll send another email to the kernel mailing list w/a test program that
demonstrates this.
