I have found a problem with the configure script for rts (gpc 20010623). It fails to correctly determine the existence of sys_siglist which does not exist on my UnixWare system. It compiles a test program containing a reference to sys_siglist. This compilation succeeds as the compiler (gcc -g -O2) optimises out the unused variable. Taking the optimisation flag off the compiler makes the test work. This will probable effect other tests as well.

As so many things, this has been fixed meanwhile (at least I hope so), by declaring the variable in the test program `volatile'. Again, try to convince Peter to uplaod the current sources ...
