First and unrelated to what you asked, I will suggest you add "use
strict;" after the "#!/usr/bin/perl" line. google for what it does.
Second, I don't know what the relation between interprocess
communication and signals is. signals in linux means events like
pressing control+c (sigint) and IPC means passinf messages (like text)
between programs. From the one line snippet you have, I asuume it's
the former. I am able catch signals without needing to include
anything.

sub interrupted
{
  die "going down\n";
}
$SIG{INT} = \&interrupted;

(check for syntax. I wrote this from memory)
