+       or should be listed as async-signal-safe in POSIX
+       <https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/V2_chap02.html#tag_15_04>
+       section 2.4.3.  Note that malloc(), sprintf(), and fwrite(), in
+       particular, are NOT async-signal-safe.
+     * All memory locations (variables and struct fields) that these functions
+       access must be marked 'volatile'.  This holds for both read and write
+       accesses.  Otherwise the compiler might optimize away stores to and
+       reads from such locations that occur in the program, depending on its
+       data flow analysis.  For example, when the program contains a loop
+       that is intended to inspect a variable set from within a signal handler
+           while (!signal_occurred)
+             ;
+       the compiler is allowed to transform this into an endless loop if the
+       variable 'signal_occurred' is not declared 'volatile'.
+   Additionally, recall that:
+     * A signal handler should not modify errno (except if it is a handler
+       for a fatal signal and ends by raising the same signal again, thus
+       provoking the termination of the process).  If it invokes a function
+       that may clobber errno, it needs to save and restore the value of
