Comment:
We've just been discussing this on IRC, and the conclusion is that we
can't stop `abort` from terminating the process; from the `abort` manpage:
{{{
If the SIGABRT signal is ignored, or caught by a handler that
returns,
the abort() function will still terminate the process. It does
this by
restoring the default disposition for SIGABRT and then raising the
sig‐
nal for a second time.
}}}
