This module implements set_sig_handler(), which sets up a signal handler
and (optionally) returns an object which causes the signal handler to be
reset to the previous value, when it goes out of scope. Also implemented is
timeout_call() which takes a timeout value and a code reference, and
executes the code reference wrapped with and alarm timeout. Finally, two
convenience routines are defined which allow one to get the signal name
from the number -- sig_name(), and get the signal number from the name --
sig_number().
