No, you are right - and the third FreeBSD user to tell me. Obviously the
FreeBSD community is right on the ball. The problem is that I don't have
an account on a FreeBSD machine [*]. I searched for strsignal on NetBSD
and BSDI and found it, so I assumed it was a BSD thing. Obviously this
was a mistake. However, finding mistakes is what testing is for! The
fix is to remove the two lines
#define os_strsignal strsignal
#define OS_STRSIGNAL
in the file OS/os.h-FreeBSD.
