    Prevent reset of SIGCHILD handler to default
    
    This pull request fixes a bug in the externalpipe pull request, and should be applied
    on top of it. It prevents the reset of the signal handler set on
    SIGCHILD, when the forked process that executes the external process
    exits. I opted for hubing from signal to sigaction instead of
    rearming the signal in the sigchld function, just because it is the
    recommended function (although I tried both ways and both worked).
