Re: [Vala] Added kill and pid_t to posix.vapi

[pancake <pancake youterm com>]

Where's the SIGXXX enum? and signal()? They are 20loc patch and are  
effortless to do,I don't see the point of pushing single function  
bindings to the posix bindings.

About Glib.Pid and pid_t ..I would defend pid_t because is something  
that depends on libc,not glib.at the end this is an "int",but should  
theorically change between systems.But that's something I have never  
seen (bsd,Linux,osx and w32) uses 32bit signed vartypes to identify a  
process,but it's like unixtime,it can change in the future to  
64bits,so I don't know if glib.pid syncs it's type depending on libc  
or what.

To avoid type sync problems I would prefer to just use the types  
already defined on the target API unless we can be sure that may not  
affect portability.
