The only call to signal() or its ilk in XForms is in the signal
callback handler. If you don't use fl_add_signal_callback() or its
related functions you probably won't need to worry about it
particularly.

As far as I can tell, it uses the SYSV, not POSIX. At least that's
all I can tell from cursory examination.
