Regarding blocking signals, I agree this is not really something that should be part of the interprocess synchronisation primitives, but I do think that a modern wrapper around the ancient C signals API would be good to have.
I agree, although given that there are many different ways to handle signals, I have a hard time imagining what such a wrapper would look like.
The latest revision of the "modern signals" paper can be found at https://wg21.link/P2069. Last month WG14 and the Austin Working Group reviewed it, and agreed with something close to it, in principle. Modulo bikeshed renaming, obviously. Niall
