Installed signal handlers are not cleared up by GHC API
When using runGHC, it calls installSignalHandlers which installs a bunch of them. There is even an XXX comment in runGHC to uninstall these eventually.
Generally, when using the GHC API, I wouldn't like it to install any signal handlers by default, if that is possible.
