Are my sources messed up or what?  I tried applying patch number 8
to my sources on a SysV machine at work and my 4.2BSD machine at home.
The "patches" to src/init.c concerning the replacement of #ifdef
SV_INTERRUPT with #ifdef SIGVEC (around line # 214) do not produce
a compilable(sp?) init.c for 4.2BSD.   Yes, the #ifdef's are replaced
but the SV_INTERRUPT that was used in between them is now apparently
undefined for a "real" BSD system.  [I say this 'cause you Sun folks
have some SystemV (and Ultrix ?) mixed in with your Berkeley]  Also,
with SIGVEC defined the structure members for sigvec are named
different for BSD.

Comments?  Questions?   Did I screw up/down/left/right???
