+ The solution is, in #3, let Pgpool-II wait for response from backend
+ 1, but do not read the response message. Later on Pgpool-II's state
+ machine will read the response from it before the sync message is sent
+ in #6. With this, backend 1 will reply back "1" in #8, and the kind
+ mismatch error does not occur.

+ Fix a race condition in a signal handler per bug 265. (Tatsuo Ishii)
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In child.c there's signal handler which calls elog. Since the signal
+ handler is not blocked against other signals while processing, deadlock
+ could occur in the system calls in the pgpool shutdown sequence. To
+ fix the problem, now the signal handler is blocked by using
+ POOL_SETMASK.
