- Subject: ualarm() does not conform to
Cygwin has recently acquired the ualarm function. The function is declared
in <sys/unistd.h> as
useconds_t _EXFUN(ualarm, (useconds_t __useconds));
This doesn't match the The Single UNIX Specification Version 2 at
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/ualarm.html, which wants
useconds_t ualarm(useconds_t useconds, useconds_t interval);
Too late to look at the source tonight.
