I think the answer will turn out to be "no" (though it's worth
testing anyway), because the syscall we're blocking in in this
case is select(), which is a syscall which will exit when a
signal arrives anyway. That is, I think we're really hitting
the race condition of the signal arriving while we're in QEMU's
C code, rather than the stuck-in-blocking-syscall of the boehm
GC case.
