Not a bug, just a suggestion.  

Would it be possible to extend the response of emacs to a "kill -HUP" signal
to include writing out a ".HUP-buffer-list" file to the users homedir?  This
would make it easier for the user to determine what files had been
modified/backed up and to restore his state.  I think just dumping the usual
result from M-x list-buffers would suffice.

Thanks.
