As signals are only delivered to the main thread, what should happen when the main thread dies? Currently, the signal mask is not unset in any other thread, so when the main thread dies, all signals set in the mask are simply ignored. Perhaps an other thread could be selected as the main thread? The accompanied file demonstrates this behavior.
