OK, I'll hold off until after the release.
To follow up on two of the other comments:
* The problem with (signal-process 4294967295 1) also occurred
with (signal-process -1 1), so it's true that that spectacular
failure wasn't all Emacs's fault. (I have since upgraded to
Fedora 15 and have been too chicken to try out the test case
in my new environment....)
* File descriptors are small ints on platforms I regularly use,
but POSIX doesn't guarantee this assumption. Removing the assumption
added two lines of code. It's not a big deal either way.
