Description Michael Kerrisk 2010-10-10 15:18:09 UTC 
When psiginfo() is given a siginfo_t for a nonrealtime signal, it prints details of the siginfo() structure. But when is given a siginfo_t for a realtime signal in the same circumstances, all it prints is "Unknown signal NN".

This is inconsistent. Nonrealtime signals should be displayed in the same way as realtime signals.
