    Problem Summary A grey area exists in the XPG4 specification as described in PIN.X.0031,
    the problem still exists in SUSv3, an equivalent PIN should be issued.
    Problem Text A grey area exists in the XPG4 specification, as described by
    PIN.X.00031, and in the SUSv2 specification, as described in PIN.X.0233.

    The grey area still exists in the SUSv3 specification, therefore an
    equivalent PIN should be issued.

    /tset/POSIX.os/devclass/tcsendbrea/T.tcsendbrea 3 Failed

    Test Description:
    If general terminal interface supported:
    tcsendbreak(fildes, duration) when duration is negative
    causes
    transmission of a continuous stream of zero-valued bits for
    an
    implementation-defined period of time, and shall return zero.
    Posix Ref: Component TCSENDBREAK Assertion 7.2.2.2-05(D)

    Test Strategy:
    OPEN and initialise terminal file and loop back file
    CREATE process pair
    CHILD process:
    CREATE process session using setsid()
    OPEN loop back file as controlling terminal for new session
    SET signal action for SIGINT to be caught
    SLEEP for WAITTIME/2 to allow break to generate SIGINT signal
    PARENT process:
    SLEEP to allow child process to initialise
    SET time out for WAITTIME/2
    SEND a break using tcsendbreak(tty_fildes, -1)
    VERIFY that SIGINT signal was received by process controlled by
    loop
    back file
    VERIFY that tcsendbreak() returned zero.

    Test Information:
    SIGINT not received
