One more.

6. multiple ctrl-c leaves locks.

Here's a patch to cvs1-11-6 that might fix that.  It just (hopefully)
ignores further signals (code copied from the register) while the
handler is under way, rather than having a more elaborate
version that registers a new interim handler that prints out a
message saying "I'm busy processing, please don't interrupt me".

Testing something timing-dependent like this is not easy though.
