A quick test shows it seems to work in response to normal termination signals.
Even if it didn't, it just takes a few lines of code to set up a handler that
calls exit(). Why would you need an "exit-soon" global in a bunch of loops? None
of that happens right now, just the default action (termination) in response to
^C. All we want to do is add some cleanup before that happens.
