I've implemented the new signal handling scheme that I was mumbling
about previously. I ended up touching a lot of files but, happily,
much of the work involved ripping out code that was no longer needed.
Just to provide as many random variables as possible, I have also turned
on thread-safety and minimal pthread support by default.
I've also eliminated the USE_REGISTRY_OPTIONS conditional. cygwin will
now search the registry for CYGWIN-environment-variable-like options.
It will find them under the HKCU\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options .
Each string name under this category is either the word "default" or is
the full Windows path (including drive) of a program. The string value
is a CYGWIN environment variable option string like "binmode or
error_start:foo".
Finally, I've added Mumit's comprehensive patch to better handle dynamic
loading.
I've also changed the version number field to reflect the 1.1.0 status
but I haven't gotten around to changing mkvers.sh to do the right thing
with it. "uname -a" should report 1.1.0, however.
