Hmmm I don't know... lib/setup.h is a CURL source file? I build from
fink so it'll take some twiddling to figure out if this is going on...

Also, is MSG_NOSIGNAL a configure option?

What's the definitive way to tell if it's being used?

How is this related to curl_easy_setopt's CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL? At runtime,
we are doing:

        curl_easy_setopt(curlH, CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL, YES);

Hmm I haven't. Actually it's an interesting idea... I'll have to see
how to catch signals from Cocoa :)

Thanks,
