 	NOTE: see USN-82-1
-	NOTE: <joshk> i don't know anything about the tty layer...but i can tell that this is just trying to prevent a possible race
-	NOTE: <joshk> i'm going to have to run this by alan cox
 	NOTE: <horms> hacim: at a cursory glance, 2.4.27 does not seem to have been fixed with regards to that problem
 	NOTE: <horms> although it was supposed to be fixed in 2.4.25-2 according to my notes
 	NOTE: <horms> i would try asking marcello
-	TODO: Micah waiting for response from Marcello
+	NOTE: reponse from Marcelo: No - v2.4 is safe because back there current->signal was not shared.
