Summary: Recognize SIGINFO, where available

Initial Comment:
SIGINFO seems to be a BSD-specific signal. It is 
typically sent to the foreground process by pressing 
Ctrl-T.

Some programs -- including cp, dd, fsck, dump -- 
respond to it by outputting their status information 
(progress update).

Tcl scripts should be able to do the same.

This patch is now part of the FreeBSD port...
