+ * This version of pqsignal() exists only because pre-9.3 releases
+ * of libpq exported pqsignal(), and some old client programs still
+ * depend on that. (Since 9.3, clients are supposed to get it from
+ * libpgport instead.)
+ *
+ * Because it is only intended for backwards compatibility, we freeze it
+ * with the semantics it had in 9.2; in particular, this has different
+ * behavior for SIGALRM than the version in src/port/pqsignal.c.
+ *
+ * libpq itself uses this only for SIGPIPE (and even then, only in
+ * non-ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY builds), so the incompatibility isn't
+ * troublesome for internal references.
