Bruce,

I assume then that the MinGW environment is missing signal emulation
that is present in the Microsoft C runtime distribution?  Microsoft's is
copyrighted, of course in winsig.c (it is actually quite small, just a
couple hundred lines of code).  Are you proposing to rewrite that part
of the CRT?  I checked the redistribution license and winsig,etc.c are
most certainly not suitable for incorporation into an open source
project.

Peer Directs relied on Visual C C++ code to handle it, and it didn't
look pretty.  I am not sure how hard it is going to be to get that
working properly.
