From: Bodo Stroesser <[email-masked]>

If a SIGWINCH comes in, while winch_thread() isn't waiting in wait(),
winch_thread could miss signals.  It isn't very probable, that anyone will
see this causing trouble, as it would need a very special timing, that a
missed SIGWINCH results in a wrong window size.

So, this is a minor problem.  But why not fix, as it can be done so easy?
