I'm concerned about bug 45158 [1] which is blocking a clean install of POE
on HP-UX.
To summarize, the test POE/Test/Loops/sbk_signal_init.pm is reliyng on the
assumption that sleep() can work while an alarm() is set, which the Perl
documentation clearly warns against, and is effectively not working on
HP-UX.

Also, why did the version number bump from 1.005 to 1.020 ?
