siginfo_t

[Jesse Kempf <kempf_(_at_)_rpi_(_dot_)_edu>]

Hi all,
I was poking around and looking at doing asynchronous I/O with SIGIO 
and SA_SIGINFO set. I noticed that in /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h, the 
_file struct in the union was #if 0'ed out by Theo back in 1997. I 
assume that the code to fill this out was never stuck into the kernel. 
(or this is a tremendous oversight) (or I'm on crack).
Is there any technical or design reason why I shouldn't try to add 
_file fillout code to the kernel and submit a patches?

Cheers,
