I believe that what you are missing is a "signal catcher" function.  I
am not sure if an exit handler will be called or not in the event of a
signal.  If you really want to catch everything, you need both.  Sample
code that I use:

/****************************************************************************\

* Name:         main                                                         *
*                                                                            *

	int     argc;
	char   *argv[];
{
    int     	rc;


	/*

	 *	and close log files, cleanup, etc.
	 */

	rc = DosSetSigHandler ( sigCatcher, 0, 0, SIGA_ACCEPT, SIG_CTRLC);

	if (!rc)
	    rc = DosSetSigHandler ( sigCatcher, 0, 0, SIGA_ACCEPT, SIG_CTRLBREAK);

	if (!rc)
	    rc = DosSetSigHandler ( sigCatcher, 0, 0, SIGA_ACCEPT, SIG_KILLPROCESS);

	if (rc)
    {
		LogPrint( 0, "Unable to set Signal handler.  Terminating..\n");
	 	exit( rc);
	}

	if (rc = DosExitList( EXLST_ADD, exitCatcher))
	{
		LogPrint( 0, "Unable to set Exit handler.  Terminating..\n");
	 	exit( rc);
	}

I apollogize for the line endings but I don't have dos2unix/os22unix handy.
The function LogPrint is an enhanced printf.
