In commit 97550c0711, we added a similar check to the SIGTERM handler for the startup process. This commit adds this check to backend signal handlers installed with pqsignal(). This is done by using a wrapper function that performs the check before calling the actual handler. The hope is that this will offer more general protection against child processes of Postgres backends inadvertently modifying shared memory due to inherited signal handlers. Another potential follow-up improvement is to use this wrapper handler function to restore errno instead of relying on each individual handler function to do so. This commit makes the changes in commit 97550c0711 obsolete but leaves reverting it for a follow-up commit.
