            Bug ID: 234988
           Summary: comparison of message vs signal is incorrect in
                    FreeBSD Architecture Handbook
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: doc at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: ebruce at yahoo.com

the last sentence of the first paragraph of 4.2.1. SysV IPC says:

  The difference between a message and a signal is that the
  message only consists of the signal number.

i think the corrected sentence could read:

  The difference between a message and a signal is that
  a message contains a message id and a message pointer,
  whereas a signal contains only a signal id.
