Why not? The archive is available at [1].

Since your application is killed in the middle of
SCardGetStatusChange() a semaphore is not released and
SCardReleaseContext() is wating after the semaphore.

You can try version 1.4.4 but I don't think it will solve your problem.

Possible solution:
- do not kill your program in the middle of PC/SC calls
- do not call SCardReleaseContext() in your signal_trap function

I don't know if PC/SC functions are supposed to be reentrant with the
_same_ card or reader context.
