What's wrong with generalised reliable signals?  All signals which do not
have an immediate consequence might as well be queued, since reliable
signals are good anyway?  But what the hell, I hear that sort of thinking
from a lot of people, so what do I know?  All I do know if if you're
passing every signal to userland, e.g. to do userland threads, you want
every signal to be reliable.
