    Problem Summary PIN4U.00067 Symbols defined in time.h may be visible in the namespace when signal.h is included.
    Problem Text
    (signal.h, POSIX should allow symbols defined in
    time.h to be visible in the namespace when signal.h is included).

    POSIX defines the sigtimedwait() function, which
    takes a const struct timespec * as one of it's arguments. This
    function is declared in the <signal.h> header. However, the
    synopsis for sigtimedwait() does not specify inclusion of
    <time.h> which is where the timespec structure is defined.

    Likewise, the sigtimedwait() description does not state any
    requirements for defining struct timespec, nor does it allow
    for the visibility of symbols in <time.h> when including
    <signal.h>. To include <signal.h> and not define struct
    timespec will result in compilers generating a warning about
    a dubious tag declaration for struct timespec.

    Though POSIX references <time.h> in the Cross-
    References and See Also sections respectively, and talks
    about the timespec structure in the text, there is no indication
    as to how one should go about making this visible.
