} I've just changed the source so that all three signal handlers just set

You'll probably want to set a reasonable timeout on select() so that you
don't wait forever if a signal happens when you're not in select() and
no inputs arrive to activate select.  Also, if select() returns -1,
the code should examine the flags before returning to the top of the loop.
