Well, in theory I suppose this could happen, but you'd have to have
a pretty bad scheduler if the parent can do a strcmp(buf, "c:go")
between the pipe read and signal send, while the child goes straight
from pipe write to sigtimedwait.

Have you seen this signal be missed?  If not, then I'd rather assume
things are reasonable.  If you have seen this happen, then why not
instead set up a SIGUSR1 handler in the child before doing the pipe
write, then just sleep for 3 seconds instead of doing sigtimedwait?
