- still work.
+ If this option is set to true during startup, then Tor will not install
+ any signal handlers to watch for POSIX signals. The SIGNAL controller
+ command will still work.

the controlling process would rather handle signals on its own.
+ This option cannot be changed via SETCONF; it must be set in a torrc or
+ via the command line.
