    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 an 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().
