I would like that someone clarifies the threads-signals situation. My
project needs a way for one thread to send all other threads in a known
state (via SIGSTOP or so). This won't work if a signal is only delivered
to _one_ thread. What's the idea with this?

Also I would like to know if there will be some support for asynchronous
paging? I would like a system-call to say "I'll be needing this page in
the immediate future".

Also a way to get from LRU to random replacement of pages would be nice.

Groetjes, Peter
