s/sigreturn/signal/ and there's more pending patches in that pile; I'd estimate that as 30-40, unless new classes of bugs show up in that crap. In that case all bets are off... And yes, I'm serious - it's that badly bitrotten. I'm holding back the obvious cleanups (e.g. there's a bunch of common helpers asking to be introduced); for now it's plain bugfixes and the estimate above is just for those. Cleanups will have to wait for the merge window...
