Signal() Function Limited in Multithread Usage
----------------------------------------------

The signal() function has limitations when used to build multithreaded
applications or dynamic-link libraries. Specifically, only
signal(SIGFPE,...) is supported in a multithreaded environment. To
trap error or interrupt conditions in this case, use direct calls to
DOSSETSIGHANDLER or DOSSETVEC.
