It isn't. I wrote that error-detection code, but there's no handling for
any of the errors it detects. It was originally done as debug-code that
made it into main because it *could* happen but was never expected to.

In this particular case, EINTR should never happen (as it says), since
the sigprocmask() called earlier in the command-reaper thread is
supposed to ignore all signals (the main thread handles signals).
SIGKILL can ofcourse still happen, but it wouldn't log anything for that.
