mach in signal handler

Subject: mach in signal handler

Earlier, I asked on darwin-dev if the mach APIs, in particular, vm_region(), could be called from a signal handler. Here's the thread, <http://lists.apple.com/archives/darwin-dev/2007/Jan/msg00048.html>

Dave Zarzycki said that if the mach based APIs are interruptible by signals, then then answer is no, but that he was unsure if that were the case. I am throughly unfamiliar with the darwin source, so I'm not sure where to even begin looking for that. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
