signals are quite tricky to deal with when you got garbage collection :) I found a mailing about how ocaml does it: http://groups.google.com/group/fa.caml/browse_thread/thread/d846aea2c1ce3ca8/0ca9914fdbccd5fd?lnk=gst&q=signal&rnum=9#0ca9914fdbccd5fd They're basically putting a placeholder function in the signal, and sprinkle a check all over the code to see if any signals came through. It's messy, but it allows you to have fully heaped and gc'd code.
