Ah, right, and in fact I'd missed the comment at line 325 pointing out
that we're relying on the sigsetjmp to be re-executed every time
through.  That could be improved on, likely, but not right before a
release.

Does the flag need to be global?  I'm thinking

  void
  setup_cancel_handler(void)
  {
+       static bool done = false;
+
+       if (!done)
                SetConsoleCtrlHandler(consoleHandler, TRUE);
+       done = true;
  }
