One issue I had is in the following function. How can I easily find the
current signal value without causing possible signal loss during
testing, or possible abort if signals were previously ignored. I could
use sigblock, and I think that would exist on a system that doesn't have
sigaction, but is it worth the portability issue? Does any platform
have threads and not sigaction?
