* _scm.h: if HAVE_RESTARTS is defined then don't use a SYSCALL
loop.
* posix.c (scm_uname): interpret only negative values as an error.
Solaris normally returns a positive value.
* script.c (scm_compile_shell_switches): if we are not going into
an interactive repl, set scm_mask_ints to zero so that asyncs can
run.
* simpos.c (scm_system): don't ignore/unignore signals around
the "system" call.
* posix.c (scm_open_pipe): don't ignore/unignore signals around
the "popen" call.
* init.c (scm_boot_guile_1): don't call scm_init_signals, it's
done in boot-9.scm instead.
* scmsigs.c, async.c: Major rewriting of signal handling code.
(scm_sigaction): new procedure.
(scm_sleep): don't wrap sleep in SCM_SYSCALL, it would mess up the
timing.
(scm_raise): return unspecified, throw error on failure.
* boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
during call to scm-style-repl.
* acconfig.h: mention HAVE_RESTARTS.
* configure.in: check for sigaction and restartable system calls.
is available in a FILE structure, which is needed by char-ready.
* acconfig.h: define FILE_CNT_FIELD, FILE_CNT_GPTR and
FILE_CNT_READPTR.
* simpos.c (scm_getenv): renamed from scm_sys_getenv. Throw
exceptions using misc_error instead of syserror. It seems a bit
odd to throw an exception if a string can't be found in the
environment, but it's consistent with open-file, stat etc.
(simpos.h): remove sys_ from getenv.
* posix.c (scm_putenv): renamed from scm_sys_putenv. If an error
occurs, throw an error instead of returning errno. Return value
is now unspecified.
(numerous in posix.c and posix.h): removed superfluous sys_ from names.
wta for range errors (ASSERT still needs work).
* error.c, error.h (scm_out_of_range): new procedure.
* error.c, error.h (scm_out_of_range_key): new key.
* posix.c (scm_sync): #else was missing.
* error.c, error.h: append _key to names scm_num_overflow and
scm_system_error.
* __scm.h (SCM_SYSMISSING, SCM_NUM_OVERFLOW): use SCM_BOOL_F instead
of consing an empty list.
(SCM_SYSERROR etc.): move into error.c, make them procedures instead
of macros, saves code and string space.
error.c, fports.c, numbers.c, posix.c, ioext.c, filesys.c, socket.c,
fdsocket.c, simpos.c: change names of SCM_SYSERROR etc., to
lower case. Rename scm_syserror_m to scm_syserror_msg.
error.h: prototypes for new procedures.
