+This function is missing on some platforms:
+Minix 3.1.8, HP-UX 11.11, IRIX 5.3, Solaris 2.4, mingw, MSVC 9, BeOS.

+On Linux/glibc platforms before the advent of NPTL, signals could only be
+sent to one particular thread. In POSIX, signals are sent to the entire
+process and executed by any thread of the process that happens to have the
+particular signal currently unblocked.
