I've changed my signal code so many times but I think it's working now.

I know. Note the original ";" and the "else" part:

     sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, &new_mask, &old_mask))
    ;  /* calls the alarm() handler now when it's safe */
  else if (sig)

What I mean was "sigprocmask() calls the alarm() handler ...".

PS. I tried the sigprocmask() approach and it's more compact. But since
I've no place to longjmp() from, that means I must sprinkle all my loops 
with tests for pending signals.
