SIGFPE only happens on divide by zero, and in the few places where
Services divides by a variable the variable is already tested for being
nonzero. SIGQUIT is user-generated. SIGABRT isn't generated at all.
SIGILL only occurs if your compiler is broken or you run a binary compiled
for the wrong CPU.
