No. If your signal support is POSIX-compatible, it should not do that because we don't set SA_RESETHAND when calling sigaction(2). If you don't have POSIX signals, you had better have BSD-style signal(2), which doesn't reset either. If this is not happening as expected, you will have much worse problems than whether statement_timeout works :-( regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
