I agree, this certainly covers everything I've ever needed to do with
a signal handler.

I wouldn't bother with semaphores instead of pipes in the initial
implementation - the performance difference should be minimal, and
probably only noticeable in the rare case of things like aync IO
signals or high-frequency timers, both of which probably ought to be
handled specially from C anyway.

Have fun,
