Mmm, good point.

It does, but it runs rather a lot of code from inside the signal
handler, which seems like a Bad Idea.  To make sure things run from
outside the signal handler, we need integration with the event loop.  I
guess we could have nsAppShell::PostSignalEvent(int signum) with a
default do-nothing implementation?
