## Why it's here

Surfaced by the pty/SIGWINCH query as part of a 2008-era kernel mailing-list thread family about SIGWINCH delivery to terminal apps (two further replies in the same thread also surfaced: `0810.1/2485.html` and `0810.2/0656.html`, logged here as one family). The core foreground-process-group finding from this thread family is already captured at Tier 1 via the 2003 RFC/CFT dossier; these later replies were not independently read in full.
