I mean for when a sub-process is running such as ebuild or rsync. Will portage 
get the SIGINT before or at the same time as the sub-process causing portage 
to then SIGKILL it while it's trying to exit cleanly? Given that portage's 
atexit handler is registered after portage_exec's, the subprocess reaping 
code would not have been doing anything in the past. I guess the question is 
more a general one rather than specifically related to background fetching.
