Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

Charles-François' analysis seems to be right. Note that the actual issue here 
is that read() always succeeds, returning a partial result (because you're 
executing a command, 'find /', which outputs a lot of data). If read() were 
interrupted before anything could be read, it would return EINTR and the 
handler would get executed immediately.

Anyone wants to propose a patch + tests?
