-1 for this case. I did some research on this subject and I disagree
that increasing the number of signals to 64 breaks binary
compatibility.
sigset_t is a limited resource but there are still 24 signals left
*and* if there is ever the need to add more signals the number of
realtime signals can be reduced again. However I strongly believe that
there will no such demand before SunOS 6.x where sigset_t can be
expanded.

IMO the case can pass with 64 realtime signals, otherwise I request a
derail and full case which explains why again a resource is increased
in a half hearted manner.
