a typo? I am by no means an expert on POSIX revisions.
More interesting in this context seems to be the subtle change
in SA_NOCLDSTOP behaviour with XSI enabled noted in the spec

  https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/sigaction.html

  SA_NOCLDSTOP[CX]  Do not generate SIGCHLD when children
  stop [XSI] or stopped children continue. 

Should this detail be documented, too, for this flag? Get SIGCHLD only
if continuing, not when stopping unless with XSI?


Alrighty then,

Thomas
