Whatever it is, it doesn't agree with the Single Unix Spec:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/sigwait.html

On HPUX 10.20 I see

#include <pthread.h>

int sigwait(sigset_t *set);

and indeed --enable-thread-safety doesn't work on this platform,
although we fail the thread safety configure test so there are other
problems beside sigwait().

My feeling about this is "too bad, we are not supporting threading on
platforms whose pthread.h doesn't follow SUS".
