I guess the main problem is that I don't have access to the library's 
signal handlers, so I can't reset them arbitrarily.  I'm trying to treat
the library as an opaque API so that I can use my program with other
implementations of the same interface.

Thanks,

P.S. I'm really enjoying your book! Great job!
