Jorrit Herder 198c976f7e System processes can be signaled; signals are transformed in SYS_EVENT message
that passes signal map along. This mechanisms is also used for nonuser signals
like SIGKMESS, SIGKSTOP, SIGKSIG.

Revised comments of many system call handlers. Renamed setpriority to nice.

/* The system call implemented in this file:
* m_type: SYS_SETALARM
*
* The parameters for this system call are:
* m2_i1: ALRM_PROC_NR (set alarm for this process)
* m2_l1: ALRM_EXP_TIME (alarm's expiration time)
* m2_i2: ALRM_ABS_TIME (expiration time is absolute?)
* m2_l1: ALRM_TIME_LEFT (return seconds left of previous)
*
* Changes:
* Aug 25, 2004 fully rewritten to clean up code (Jorrit N. Herder)
