This is much nicer than what I was playing with yesterday, trying to separate out the "bool group" logic in the signal sending code. I didn't even think to use the pidtype. In my defense, I would never have done this whole pidtype cleanup that preceded this patch just to fix that odd fork() thing. As I started reading this patch series, I went from "this seems a bit pointless" to "Ahhh...." and as I did that I started liking the series a lot more. My initial reaction was "this seems over-engineered" when I just looked at the subject lines in my mailbox. But as I progressed through the series, I really appreciated it. And this "10/11" was when I went "ok, I don't even need to see patch 11, I know what he's doing. Anyway, take that as a long-winded ack for the approach and the appreciation of the series. Of course, that's just reading through the patches, no actual _testing_ of them. But it looks good to me. Thanks, Linus
