Subject: Status request signallling to children or MPI nodes.
Solar,
Is there a reason you picked SIGUSR2 for fork mode's signalling to
children instead of SIGUSR1, that the MPI code has used for ages for the
same thing? I have a patch that changes your code to use SIGUSR1 and
drops the specific MPI code but I thought you might have had a good
reason for not doing that?
The main reason I want this is I'm writing a patch that makes John
reload/process .pot file etc. upon receiving a signal and I realized
we're out of them :-(
