Dear Sirs,

I just started to use the cygwin package (cygwin-1.3.6 installed on 7th of
january 2002). I detected the problem, that I cannot kill a program with
kill -1 pid or control+c where I installed a signalhandler for the
following signals

#ifndef WIN32
  signal(SIGHUP, (void (*)(int)) signalhandler);
  signal(SIGQUIT, (void (*)(int)) signalhandler);
#endif
  signal(SIGINT, (void (*)(int)) signalhandler);

The function "signalhandler()" stores some simulation results. On UNIX this
works fine, on WindowsNT/2000 from a DOS Shell it works also. Only from the
Cygwin Shell the function is not called.

Is this (signal handling) a known bug?
Is it already fixed in cygwin-1.3.9 from 21st of january 2002?

Kind regards

Dierk Wendt
