Ah, this is because of the new daemon thread in ResourceSharer. That thread is never stopped and could receive signals while tests expect them to be delivered to the main thread.

Either we add a (private?) facility to stop that thread, or we block signal delivery in that thread using the signal module's pthread_sigmask. What do you think?
