Hey Guys,

I have built libcurl on OS X using Xcode into a universal binary (32-bit). I
have a class that wraps the calls to libcurl and when I make instance of
that class and try to call curl_easy_perform it crashes in transfer.c line
1872. This is the location where the code is trying to tell the OS to ignore
SIGPIPE.

Here is the code in question.

#if defined(HAVE_SIGNAL) && defined(SIGPIPE) && !defined(HAVE_MSG_NOSIGNAL)
  /*************************************************************
   * Tell signal handler to ignore SIGPIPE
   *************************************************************/
  if(!data->set.no_signal)
    data->state.prev_signal = signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN); <<<<<----
this is line where it crashes
#endif

I am not a big Unix or OS X guy so don't exactly know the significance of
this code. I could try defining HAVE_SIGNAL as 0 to avoid the error, but
would like to understand why it is crashing.

Ramesh

Thanks a lot. Applied!
