But the application itself will (should) never call the kernel
directly. Everything goes to the libc. And it is easy to filter out
signal numbers which are higher as the ones which are used for
compiling the libc.
I don't think we should spend a thought on situation where someone
really uses the kernel directly and so could introduce situations
which cannot be controlled by the libc.
