As far as I know it should work fine.  Don't know how many platforms lack
sigaction() and would require sigvec().  I know NeXT lacks it.  

I threw together a quick patch that replaced all signal() w/ mysignal(),
and I did not see any ill effects under Linux.  However, I did not push it
very hard either (due to time, and lack of any indepth knowledge of
signal() vs sigaction()).
