Signal handling now added, tested and working correctly in version 3,
attached.

pg_standby is an example program for a warm standby script as discussed
on -hackers:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-08/msg00407.php

Program looks complete and ready for review, to me.

I double checked and re-ran all my test and confirmed that pg_standby
move (-m) mode is definitely busted in v3 in the sense that a restart
of the standby will not resume recovery and requires a pg_resetxlog to
become operational -- it needs one more WAL file back than  the oldest
one available.

I am currently working around this by rotating WAL files a couple of
versions back in the shell script I am using to receive log files via
netcat.  move mode is very desirable because it keeps the maintenance
down for the standby system.
