I don't really know, but there are some alternatives on dub
that try to improve on std.signals, for example
https://code.dlang.org/packages/phobosx. Not sure thread
safety is part of the efforts.

The recent updated is from 2015. That's not what I consider to
be ideal.
I assume you think that is a long time. It could also mean it is
stable.
All I am saying is before you start looking into fixing the
existing std.signals, it may be beneficial to look at
improvements that others have made. The review thread is here
[1], voting thread is here [2] (it was a tie). It was not
accepted into phobos due to lack of thorough review and too
little interest. Some people think std.signals should be
deprecated and removed altogether, others think it is a shame it
didn't get in. Positive feedback exists [3, 4].
Maybe you are the right person to brush this implementation up,
address the critiques, and open a new PR. According to [5] it is
already thread safe.
Bastiaan.
