[ale] Cooperating with logrotate

[Cleveland Flowe]

In a multithreaded app, the signal is sent to only one of the threads.  To
control which thread gets the signal, you should associate a signal mask
with the thread.  Set the mask to allow the signals you want.  Then, create
a mask that blocks all signals and associate that with the remaining
threads.

A related question, what happens to a threaded program that gets the
HUP?  Do all threads have to catch the signal and process them?
