I didn't find that during my searches. Good to know. I'll remove all
the Cocoa stuff from the handler. Thanks, Nick.

You can work around this by using a kqueue to receive the signal,
creating a file descriptor to listen on the kqueue, and then using
an NSSocket to get a callback on the runloop after the kqueue fires.
(Sorry that sounds convoluted. I've implemented this in the past,
but the code is still inside Apple's firewall, where I don't have
access to it anymore, so I can't look up the details.)
A little convoluted, yes, but thanks, Jens. :-) If I start seeing
problems, I'll look into it.
