Quite possibly, though I expect my thoughts are along more-gradual and 
more-modest lines. Can you remind me what that proposal is, with a bug# or a URL 
or something? I remember our discussion in 2016 about signal handling, but I 
don't recall exactly what the proposed fixes were, other than to eliminate the 
longjmp when the C stack overflows.
