    Problem Summary TSD4U.00121 This test fails on implementations where uid_t is an unsigned intregal type.
    Problem Text
    This test fails on implementations where uid_t is an unsigned
    intregal type.

    The base working group has clarified that uid_t does
    not have to be a signed type, thus the testcase is incorrect in
    expecting a signed type. The clarification issued by the wg is in
    interpretation 1170/88.

    On page 842 of the XPG4 V2 XSH spec, it states:

    " The signinfo_t is defined as described in <signal.h>."

    TSD4U.00070 was issued to cover this problem for the signal.h testcase and
    an additional TSD is requested to cover this problem for sys/wait.h.
    Test Output
    TEST CASE: sys/wait.h

    TEST PURPOSE #14
    The type siginfo_t shall be defined in sys/wait.h as a
    structure containing the member si_uid which shall
    be of type uid_t.
    TEST: Size
    TEST: Signed
    ERROR: Expected si_uid member to be signed, is unsigned
    14 FAIL
