Signal issues.



Hello All,

I just ran across an incompatible change in signal handling in perl
5.7.3 and later, that causes problems when the Glib::MainLoop is
running. The problem is, that the new signal handling stuff defers
execution of the perl hooks until a "safe" place -- which never happens
when a Gtk::MainLoop sits in a poll. Please consider adding a custom
event handler (the poll is broken by the signal, so it should run) to
dispatch these handlers.
