Subject: Re: [patch] make siginfo_t si_utime + si_sstime report times in USER_HZ, not HZ

Like I said, what makes most sense in the abstract is not what we're doing,
and what Solaris does may make more sense.  But I don't think it's worth
changing now.  Noone can be successfully relying on it, it's not standard, etc.


Thanks,
Roland
