We could add a variable that triggers an abort when the signal handler
runs in pattern matching, but does that tell us anything beyond, er, it
was running in pattern matching?  If not, what sort of information could
we get from this?  Dump some state when we return from the signal
handler and detect we've been in it?  Or is that if we know we've been
int he signal handler at that point we already know the place where we
needed to queue signals...

I don't think I've actually suggested anything.
