Unix signal sending and handling for Racket

A small example:

(require unix-signals)

(capture-signal! 'SIGUSR1)
(capture-signal! 'SIGUSR2)
(printf "Try 'kill -USR1 ~a' and 'kill -USR2 ~a'\n" (getpid) (getpid))
(let loop ()
  (define signum (read-signal))
  (printf "Received signal ~v (name ~v)\n" signum (lookup-signal-name signum))
  (loop))

Be warned: Don't try to capture SIGSEGV, SIGBUS or other signals that Racket already treats specially.
