Looks good, except for the test case:
+ (pass-if-exception "handler arg is an invalid integer"
+ exception:out-of-range
+ (sigaction SIGINT 51))
whereas my bits/signum.h shows:
#define SIGUNUSED 31
#define _NSIG 65 /* Biggest signal number + 1
(including real-time signals). */
I presume that in the era of 64-bit CPU's we might
start seeing new sigs in the 32-64 range. Or maybe
the RT kernels already do ... ?
