Here's my current handler-bind patch, which includes some doc.

[handler-bind.patch (text/x-diff, inline)]
commit 7252f6b48944e22980f4030c98a6c7b05243e19e
Author: Stefan Monnier <monnier <at> iro.umontreal.ca>

    tramp.el: Use `handler-bind` instead of `signal-hook-function`
    
    * lisp/net/tramp.el (tramp--trace-errors): Rename from
    `tramp-signal-hook-function` and change calling convention for
    `handler-bind`.
    (tramp-unknown-id-string, tramp-unknown-id-integer):
    Don't use `defconst` for vars which we let-bind (in tramp-tests.el).
    (tramp-file-name-handler): Use `handler-bind` instead of let-binding
    `signal-hook-function`.
    (tramp-handle-lock-file, tramp-handle-load, tramp-add-hops)
    (tramp-run-real-handler):
    * lisp/net/tramp-sshfs.el (tramp-sshfs-handle-insert-file-contents):
    * lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-sh-get-signal-strings):
    (tramp-send-command-and-read):
    * lisp/net/tramp-message.el (tramp-debug-message, tramp-error):
    * lisp/net/tramp-adb.el (tramp-do-parse-file-attributes-with-ls): Don't
    let-bind `signal-hook-function`.
