Signal() is a socks function, not the signal(3) we all know and love.
Signal does:
#ifdef SA_RESETHAND
    sa.sa_flags |= SA_RESETHAND;
#endif
which is what causes this behavior.  That's what sucks and should
likely be fixed.

A random nuron fired this morning and I went off and looked at their
patches page.  They fixed this in a different way than I did by
patching Signal() so that doesn't compile this in when they are in
their server, which I think is an uglier patch than what I did...  But
I'll see about getting that into the port and removing my patch.
