Libev requires an integer type (suitable for storing C<0> or C<1>) whose
-access is atomic with respect to other threads or signal contexts. No such type
-is easily found using, so you cna provide your own type that you know is safe.
+access is atomic with respect to other threads or signal contexts. No such
+type is easily found in the C language, so you can provide your own type
+that you know is safe for your purposes.
In the absense of this define, libev will use C<sig_atomic_t volatile>
-from F<signal.h>, which is usually good enough on most platforms.
