Hi All Given below are the defect descriptions for the signal usage of SIGVTALRM in Ruby 1.9 implementation. Defect Description: In file trunk/thread_pthread.c, at line no: 153 In the "Init_native_thread" function, posix_signal function is called with SIGVTALRM value setting an empty function as signal handler. The "Init_native_thread" function is indirectly called from ruby_init(). As per our understanding, SIGVTALRM is no longer a reserved signal in Ruby 1.9implementation and therefore no signal handler should be installed for it. Regards Chirag

1.9 still uses SIGVTALRM for context switching.
