I'm not sure I buy this here - we don't have (but perhaps should?) a
convenient location for an overview comment around this. There's no
"signal_handling.c" where it'd clearly belong - given the lack of a
clear point to look to, I don't think a README.SIGNAL_HANDLING would get
out-of-date more quickly than code comments in mildly related place (say
postgres.c or miscinit.c) would get out of date at a different pace.
