It worked for us pretty much as advertised. Have you tried issuing the signal with the console logged on so you can watch the messages?
Or use a program like "track". You should get a message from the kernel that the signal was caught even if the script doesn't run: 09:06:05 CAD: Sending SIGINT to PID 1...
