SIGINT is not handled in forked process
If haskell program is forked in a toplevel hander that sends UserInterrupt in the main thread doesn't work, because Thread 1 doesn't exists in forked program, so that action is noop.
Minimal example:
import Control.Concurrent
import Control.Exception
import System.Posix
main = do
pid <- forkProcess $ do
handle (\UserInterrupt{} -> putStrLn "caught")
$ threadDelay 2000000
signalProcess sigINT pid
threadDelay 2000000
Expected result: "caught" printed to stdout. Actual result: nothing is printed.
