I believe Johannes was planning to do this, after holidays/vacation. It
seems that Git for Windows' test suite is the most reliable way to
reproduce this. There are occasional hangs in MSYS2 builds, but they
go away on a re-run of the build. FWIW, I don't think we've even proven
that this is signal-related. The latest backtraces seem to suggest pipes,
but I wouldn't bet on anything at this point. The only reason signals
came into it is that the last (more common) hang was signal-related.
