According to the dev that ported it:
Quote:
The current version is stable and native with a native GUI. I only put KOffice here because there really hasn't been an updated Office suite in the BeOS/Haiku community for years now.
This is an issue for core developers. Originally this was optional for POSIX compliance. Now SIGINFO is required but not yet implemented in Haiku.

Also, missing of SIGINFO stop me when I try to port Cherokee Web server. (Nice little and fast webserver with friendly and neat administration panel)
http://ports.haiku-files.org/wiki
add a wiki entry for Cherokee, then add a dependency for the previous SIGINFO bug? This will add importance for adding SIGINGO. Thanks!
Here two tickets related with SIGINFO in Haiku's bug tracker:
