Yeah, I've known about this race for ages; it's the reason for the
"switch to signalfd()" TODO item. I actually have a fair rewrite of the
libnih core code to switch to epoll(), timerfd, signalfd, etc. all
pending - just haven't had time to sit down and merge it all in yet.
(And this bug doesn't affect Upstart in any important way, so hasn't got
priority :p)
