The following code, which I'll someday include in the Xt-FAQ,
implements signal handling using pipes.

/*
 * signals -
 *	An Xt Intrinsics signal handler developed based on discussions
 *	in comp.windows.x and written by someone who wishes to be
 *	anonymous.
 *
 *	A pipe is created and the read side is passed off to
 *	XtAppAddInput().  Everytime a signal occurs a byte, indicating
 *	which signal, is written by the signal handler on the write
 *	side of the pipe.  This causes the Intrinsics to call the
 *	input handler which then invokes the correct callback.
 *
 *	The potential for deadlock exists if the pipe is ever filled!
