/*
 * This signal handler shouldn't be touching this much stuff.
 * It should just set a flag and return, and something else in
 * Pidgin should monitor the flag to see if something needs to
 * be done.  Because the signal handler interrupts the program,
 * it could be called in the middle of adding a new connection
 * to the list of connections, and then if we try to disconnect
 * all connections it could lead to a crash because the linked
 * list of connections could be in a weird state.  But, well,
 * this signal handler probably isn't called very often, so it's
 * not a big deal.
