Also, the System V Release 3 signal stuff has been added -- including
software signals [ssignal()], sigset(), sigrelse(), sigignore(),
sighold(), and sigpause().

These new signal routines (specifically sigpause()) do not have the
problems my posted patches to the 2.1 dev sys/os had.

Also, `cc' outputs (more) reasonable error messages (a big thing for me).

The documentation is on par with the 2.3 OS docs.  That is, compared
with earlier SCO documentation, fantastic.

I give it two `thumbs up'.

Pax, Keith
