R. David Murray added the comment:

If it used to handle the signal and then re-raise it, why doesn't it now set 
its flag and then re-raise the signal?  (I also don't understand why the API 
isn't that the application takes back the signal handler if it needs it if it 
is using readline, but I'm not familiar enough with signal handling in 
applications to really judge that, I suppose.)

However, we certainly understand the issues with doing too much in signal 
handlers, so if that ship has sailed I guess we'll just have to deal with it.
