        !            16: to the process specified by the

        !            18: See signal(II) for a list of signals.
        !            19: .s3
        !            20: The sending and receiving processes must
        !            21: have the same controlling typewriter, otherwise
        !            22: this call is restricted to the super-user.

        !            34: is neither a necessary nor sufficient
        !            35: condition for allowing the sending of a signal.
        !            36: The correct condition is equality of user IDs.
