 In general, you can't use signal unsafe functions (e.g. all stdio(3)
 functions) in the signal handlers.  Manupulation with unprotected data
 in the signal handler is unsafe too.
 
 See Bruce's followup to bin/78304 for some useful info about signal
 handlers: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/78304
