+Summary: [PATCH] SIGRTMIN no always usable
+
+Some older SUSE distros (7.x, 8.x SLES 7 and 8) have been
+shipped with a buggy LIBC which consumes SIGRTMIN itself
+leading to crash when libmono.so is loaded, for example
+when --with-static_mono=no is applied or when libmono.so is
+consumed by third party programs.
+
+About the LIBC bug:
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53394
+
+The patch presets mono_thread_get_abort_signal to return
+SIGRTMIN+3. This signal is supposed to be available on
+all systems that support SIGRTMIN, because POSIX requires
+at least 8 signals.
