i've just this minute checked out httpd 2.0 the function apr_signal is still used in about four places in httpd, according to latest cvs. doing a grep
now whether any of those actually _compile_ is another matter for more than a cursory glance. ... which brings me [doggedly] back to a question i asked last week but did not get a response: how is signal handling dealt with in APR? how do i block or catch signals? i do not want to fall foul of the report by todd sabin from razor.bindview.com that says that 80% of programs written for unix are vulnerable to SIGNAL attacks - especially SIG_PIPE. i do not pretend to understand all of the issues but i know that they are there, so i am raising them here for people with more experience than i to address them what is APR and httpd's view with respect to signals and signal blocking? how is this handled?
