Erlang Linux signal handling

Question

Is it possible to trap Linux signals (e.g. SIGUSR1) through an handler in Erlang? (without having to resort to a driver crafted in C)

Answer 1

(NOT A REAL ANSWER)

In 2001 someone asked:

Does anyone have any examples of unix signal handling in erlang. I would like to make a loadbalancer that I have written respond to sighup.

At that time the answer was:

There is no provision for handling signals in Erlang "itself", i.e. you will need to use a driver - or a port program of course, might actually be a better idea. Also for the driver case, the emulator has its own handler for a number of signals, and interfering with that will probably have "interesting" results - but SIGHUP should be OK I believe.

As far as I know, nothing changed since then. But this is extremely interesting. If anyone has any news about this, please let us know :)
