don't bother to re-initialise the NCPs. Instead wait for
bundle_LinkClosed() to be called - IFF it actually is called.
By initialising the NCPs at this point, ppp was recursing
back into the fsm_Down() routing for the link, and losing
track of the reason that the link was being brought down.
The end result was that ``set reconnect'' would never do

if the childs exec() has succeeded or failed by taking advantage
of the fact that both processes share the same memory.
FWIW:
I tried to implement this by doing a pipe(), setting the
write desciptors close-on-exec flag in the child and writing
errno to the descriptor if the exec() fails. The parent can
then ``if (read()) got errno else exec worked''.
This didn't work though - the child could write() to fd[1] on
exec failure, but the parent got 0 trying to read() from fd[0] !
Is this a bug in execve() ?

This has minimal impact here, but if ppp ever needs to frequently
remove timers before they've timed out, it can badly skew the next
item in the timer list without this change.
The correct fix would be to store usecs in `rest' rather than
TICKUNITs, but the math is easier if we just round...
that we adjust that timers `rest' value (with the current getitimer()
values) before using that to adjust the next items `rest' value.
After adjusting that value, restart the timer service so that we've
now got the correct setitimer() values.

would cause syslogd to eventually kill innocent processes in the
system over time (note: not `could' but `would'). Many thanks to my
colleague Mirko for digging into the kernel structures and providing
me with the debugging framework to find out about the nature of this
bug (and to isolate that syslogd was the culprit) in a rather large
set of distributed machines at client sites where this happened
occasionally.
Whenever a child process was no longer responsive, or when syslogd
receives a SIGHUP so it closes all its logging file descriptors, for
any descriptor that refers to a pipe syslogd enters the data about the
old logging child process into a `dead queue', where it is being
removed from (and the status of the dead kitten being fetched) upon
receipt of a SIGCHLD. However, there's a high probability that the
SIGCHLD already arrives before the child's data are actually entered
into the dead queue inside the SIGHUP handler, so the SIGCHLD handler
has nothing to fetch and remove and simply continues. Whenever this
happens, the process'es data remain on the dead queue forever, and
since domark() tried to get rid of totally unresponsive children by
first sending a SIGTERM and later a SIGKILL, it was only a matter of
time until the system had recycled enough PIDs so an innocent process
got shot to death.
Fix the race by masking SIGHUP and SIGCHLD from both handlers mutually.
Add additional bandaids ``just in case'', i. e. don't enter a process
into the dead queue if we can't signal it (this should only happen in
case it is already dead by that time so we can fetch the status
immediately instead of deferring this to the SIGCHLD handler); for the
kill(2) inside domark(), check for an error status (/* Can't happen */
:) and remove it from the dead queue in this case (which if it would
have been there in the first place would have reduced the problem to a
statistically minimal likelihood so i certainly would never have
noticed the bug at all :).
Mirko also reviewed the fix in priciple (mutual blocking of both
signals inside the handlers), but not the actual code.
