<div>Today I was able to work on this problem again. Alas heartbeat_handler() in sqUnixTimerHeartbeat.c is not called automatically as it should be.</div><div>Only if I trigger an external ALRM signal (by means of signal -ALRM <pid>) it’s being called.

Perhaps on FreeBSD or OpenSolaris you need to rearm the signal handler on each delivery? But perhaps there's a flag you can set in the sigaction that avoids having to do this.</div>
