I just read the signals section of Programming Perl 2nd edition (my

Some of the issues are handled in 5.8's signal handling changes.
The book also states that you can not IGNORE or trap a A KILL or STOP signal. Is it still the case with Perl 5.8 and Linux kernel 2.4x?
Again, my recommendation would be to pick up the Stevens book. Learn about how signals work, and that start figuring out how they work with perl.
