Disabling signalfd will disable this behaviour, but libev has temporarily
blocked signals in all versions and will do so even when signalfd is not
in use, so the problem then is just less obvious (when not using threads,
this works, though - the current CVS docs explain this in slightly more
detail).
The right solution would probbaly then be an atfork handler to reset the
mask in the child.
