The push of this project to /ws/onnv-gate
(to be included in OpenSolaris in the fullness of time):

PSARC 2010/062 increase number of realtime signals
6820737 Solaris needs to increase the number of realtime signals for platform 
parity

changes the values of these compile-time constants obtained
from including <sys/signal.h>:
    NSIG
    MAXSIG
    _SIGRTMAX

These are not supposed to be used by standards-conforming applications, 
or for that matter, by any code at all outside of the OS-NET consolidation.

Nevertheless, there are many applications that do use them in array 
definitions.  All such applications should be recompiled on any
system that is installed with this project in place.

(Ideally, such applications should be rewritten so as not to depend
on these private definitions.)

Use the library/libc category/subcategory for reporting bugs.
