How widespread is signal support beyond DJGPP? I'm given to understand that
it is actually a feature of ANSI C, but in the real world this doesn't mean
every C implementation offers it. Please let me know if there are any
systems worthy of consideration (e.g. old 16 bit compilers,
Windows-specific compilers, the Commodore 64 and so forth don't count..
modern compiler environments and operating systems not too badly tainted
with Microsoft are my focus) for which signal(), raise() and the typical
macros specified by ANSI are LACKING, or alternatively if you're sure there
is no such system.
