[pkg-firebird-general] Bug#642555: firebird2.5: segfault in the remote interface when using alarm() in the client program

[Damyan Ivanov]

Package: firebird2.5
Version: 2.5.1.26349-0~rc1.ds4-4
Severity: important

Quoting from above:

You've really found a regression in 2.5.1. The reason is that newly added 
poll() system call was not checked for errno == EINTR. It already works for me, 
I just need some time to carefully remove printfs and run TCS. Will commit the 
fix tomorrow.

The intent of this bug report is to warn users.
