Nikita, I'm confused again, you mean UID of the SENDING process, right?

Alexandra, we should update this per the POSIX documentation:

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/signal.h.html
"On systems not supporting the XSI option, the si_pid and si_uid members of 
siginfo_t are only required to be valid when si_code is SI_USER or SI_QUEUE. On 
XSI-conforming systems, they are also valid for all si_code values less than or 
equal to 0; however, it is unspecified whether SI_USER and SI_QUEUE have values 
less than or equal to zero, and therefore XSI applications should check whether 
si_code has the value SI_USER or SI_QUEUE or is less than or equal to 0 to tell 
whether si_pid and si_uid are valid."
