Sorry, I confused myself here. :)  It's true that the current
implementation can't detect children killed by signals, but that's not
what's going on in this case.  AFAICT, NO process is actually killed
by a signal.  The issue was that Mutt got tired of waiting for
sendmail and exited.  But it has not provided itself a way to know
or report that, either.
