I am extremely happy to see that you got this to work; I bashed my head
against a wall getting the signal-handling thread to block the right
signals. This does seem like something that should be in guile proper
rather than shepherd though.
As I read it, you need to set up a signalfd handlers for specific
signals before ever calling `sigaction'. Does this not have an impact on
being able to do some forms of REPL-driven development with shepherd?
Perhaps it makes sense to document this gotcha (and some of its
implications) in a location other than an inline comment in
`maybe-signal-port'.
Thanks for getting this to work nonetheless!
