well, it "hangs" on recvfrom(3:

This could be the case, but on the other hand version 0.18 and 1.0 both
run without problems on the same system.
I wonder what the error code "ERESTARTSYS" means, which recvfrom()
returns on the SIGQUIT signal. Shouldn't the system call
return with EINTR? Both are different:
85 ERESTART Interrupted system call should be restarted
4 EINTR Interrupted system call
The errno result code does not change even when I catch the signal
SIGQUIT and install a signal handler without SA_RESTART flags.
