    SIGHUP. The mailing list archives weren't entirely clear on whether or
    not it should already happen, but didn't appear to be.

    The patch:
       * Adds a new function, reload_signal() which just calls
 parse_inittab() and run_actions(RESPAWN)

       * Before entering the while (1) loop set up SIGHUP to call

Checking the errno after the first call showed that the system was complaining

Patch from Andrew Dennison:

I've had some issues with modprobe which I reported a few months ago. This
is still an issue so I decided to sort it out.

The attached diff includes the changes against the unstable cvs tree that
work for me.

Changes are:
mod_process() will report success if the module at the head of the list
loads successfully. It will also report success if any module unloads
successfully.
The net result being that modprobe will succeed in the cases outlined below.
I've also added error reporting to modprobe -r. Previously it would silently
fail (but report success) if the module could not be unloaded.

I'm building BusyBox using a development kit for MontaVista Hardhat Linux
(PPC) -- which, at least in this instance, is based around kernel 2.2.14.
I've had to massage a few files in networking/libiproute/ to make it
compile.  Specifically:

  (1) Added a #include <sys/uio.h> for the iovec structure in
      libnetlink.c,

  (2) Put ifdefs in ll_types.c and ll_proto.c around various
      constants (ETH_P_xxx and ARPHRD_xxx) that weren't defined,

  (3) Make do_changename() in iplink.c require a kernel >=
      2.4.0 -- the ifr structure in my environment doesn't
      have the ifr_name attribute.  I've assumed this is
      a kernel dependency -- let me know if I ought to be
      checking something else.

      In the absence of the correct kernel, do_changename()
      always returns 0.

Attached is a patch against the current CVS that will make these changes.
