Nope. If there's no userland signal handler, the process will never
return to userland after a signal. If you really wanted to, you
could add handlers for all the signals and make them call the
atexit() functions before dying, but that would get messy (since
the process state is probably indeterminate if it got an unexpected
signal).
As various people have pointed out, SysV IPC is mostly an abomination.
