[PATCH] Drop non-reserved parameter names from sys/signal.h


Hi,

Standard headers shouldn't use non-reserved identifiers as parameter
names in function declarations, because programs could in theory
define macros with such names before including a header, which can
result in syntax errors. The patch below drops parameter names such as
"value" and "set" from libc/include/sys/signal.h (which is included by
the standard signal.h).

Kind regards,
Andy
