I am not going to apply this patch to old lyx cvs module, but it is
nice to know that it is so easy to make the switch (basically add a
return type to the signal declaration.)
I think we will check in configure if there is a libsigc++ installed
and if so use that otherwise we will use the one that we provide with
LyX. (much in the same way as we do with gettext now)
It is a pity that libsigc++ distribution is so large...
