Comment (by vbraun):

 For the record, we build ECL with `--disable-threads` so it shouldn't have
 any multithread support. It does link with pthreads, though perhaps
 boehmgc needs that.

 I don't think the sage-cleaner has anything to do with the problem. It
 just slightly changes timings so that we happen to trigger a rather
 unlikely race on taurus/skynet. It certainly should not send any signals
 except for term/kill.

 The new doctest framework seems to be the only thing that uses SIGCHLD in
 the Sage library.
