I do care because my embedded perl code does some resource cleanup on
shutdown that should be done even when debugging ;-) And CTRL-C aka
SIGINT is the typical way of shutting down in debug mode. Killing with
SIGTERM isn't as easy as typing CTRL-C ...

That's right and that's why I think SIGINT should be handled specially
in debugging mode, not in daemon mode.
