It's a common usage in GNU systems to send SIGUSR1 to dd, which causes it to print info. However... when I tried it it died (ouch). Two patches are in the PR, one to print summary (imitate GNU) and after talking to gavin@ on #bsdcode I made one to ignore the signal. Which one of these fixes will be most popular?
