/**
 * The SignalInterceptor class is a static collection of methods used to
 * intercept POSIX signals before they are sent to their original signal
 * handlers. Signal interceptors may be chained: If one attach the handler
 * <code>A</code> to signal <code>X</code>, then attach the handler
 * <code>B</code> to <code>X</code> as well, then all raised signals of type
 * <code>X</code> will first call <code>B</code>, then <code>A</code>, then the
 * original handler.
 * <p>
 * Signal handlers are {@link java.util.concurrent.Callable}s, which return
 * booleans. If the signal handler returns <code>true</code>, the call chain
 * will continue. If the signal handler returns <code>false</code> or throws an
 * Exception, the call chain will stop (and no Exception will be thrown). If the
 * signal handler throws an Error, the Error will not be caught.
