If a child process catches SIGINT and handles it internally rather than
exiting because of it, is there a way for the parent to know that the
SIGINT didn't cause an exit from the child?

Alternatively, is there a way to tell after launching a child whether the
child *exited due to* a signal of some kind? (It is easy to detect if any
signals happened in the child. I mean differentiating whether one made it
exit.)
