Well, switching out %SIG's symbol table entry totally kills all ability to set signal handlers. *sigh* Plus the STORE method doesn't even get called any more. Update: Oh wait, I lied. I was just doing it wrong. It does work, though it still seems dangerous. If I still go ahead with this, I'm definately making this at least a switch that defaults to off. :-)

Well, it would have been cool if I could've gotten it to work. I still could but it would probably explode "at the most inconvient time" (says seanbo). I still think that they should fix it so we can tie %SIG... :-)

Maybe I'll go ahead and write the rest of the code and just put in large disclaimers that it can't be used with legacy alarm code. Heh, maybe I could even put in a $VOODOO flag... ;-)

Thanks again for all your help, tye. I had a pretty good idea when I started that I wouldn't be able to pull this off, and I'm suprised I got as far as I did. I certainly learned a thing or two in the process, which makes it all worth-while.
