 * signals.  This includes all signals we normally expect to get, but NOT
 * signals that should never be turned off.
 *
 * StartupBlockSig is the set of signals to block during startup packet
 * collection; it's essentially BlockSig minus SIGTERM, SIGQUIT, SIGALRM.
 *
 * UnBlockSig is the set of signals to block when we don't want to block
 * signals (is this ever nonzero??)
