The thing you missed is that there were two mututally incompatible
sigpause functions around.
The 4.3BSD one is obsolete, but still present in BSD libcs, and
merely resolves to:
int
sigpause(int mask)
{
return (sigsuspend((sigset_t *)&mask));
}
The incompatible *other* one got standardised for UNIX95 and is
the one removed from latest POSIX. I’d even say drop it the next
time musl bumps the major version anyway.

No, the only way I've seen them sold is for $40 with a free OpenBSD CD.
