Since I hadn't heard anything in quite awhile, I e-mailed fvdl; he said
he's doing a different job within Sun now and can't work on this.  But he
did put the webrev back up at
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~fvdl/siginfo/

and took himself off of 6310532.  So, is someone interested in picking this up?

At the time, the code looked reasonable, although I was in no position to try to
build it.  I don't know that I am now - it seems to take more than 1GB RAM to
get a build to complete.  I'm running in VirtualBox; I can maybe get away with
giving it 2GB, but that's the upper limit, and I don't know if that will work.  
I don't
even want to think about doing a build on my SPARC (which might need updating
first, it's only at snv_97), notwithstanding that it has 8GB RAM, all the  swap 
I want
to give it (realistically speaking), and two decent CPUs.

Anyway, the code might need some updating, but probably not much.  The RFE
has been around for awhile, and since then, at least two or three people have
asked here about SIGINFO.
