Nicolas B f25ea51b98 poll.2, select.2: Add a reference to the sigset discussion in sigprocmask(2) 
A little while back, I added a note to sigprocmask.2 that
discussed the difference between the libc's and the kernel's
sigset_t structures.  I added that note, because I saw this being
done wrong in a tool tracing system calls (causing subtle bugs).
As it turns out, the same bugs existed for ppoll and pselect, for
the same reason. I'm hoping by adding the reference here, future
writers of similar tools will find that discussion and not make
the same mistake.

README 

This package contains Linux man pages for sections
2, 3, 4, 5, and 7. Some more information is given in the
`Announce' file.

Install by copying to your favourite location.
"make install" will just copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].
To install to a path different from /usr use
"make install prefix=/install/path".
"make" will move the pages from this package that are older than
the already installed ones to a subdirectory `not_installed',
then remove old versions (compressed or not),
compress the pages, and copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].


Note that you may have to remove preformatted pages.

Note that sometimes these pages are duplicates of pages
also distributed in other packages. This has been reported
about dlclose.3, dlerror.3, dlopen.3, dlsym.3 (found in ld.so),
about resolver.3, resolv.conf.5 (found in bind-utils),
and about passwd.5, and mailaddr.7. Be careful not to
overwrite more up-to-date versions.
Reports on further duplicates are welcome.
Formerly present and now removed duplicates:
 exports.5 (found in nfs-server-2.2*),
 fstab.5, nfs.5 (found in util-linux-2.12*),
 lilo.8, lilo.conf.5 (found in lilo-21.6*).
