this doesn't accurately describe real world behavior (but maybe that's a 
bug?).  this is why i avoided that aspect in the first place :(.

for example:
(gdb) handle SIGHUP SIGUSR1 SIGUSR2 SIGPWR
Signal        Stop      Print   Pass to program Description
SIGHUP        Yes       Yes     Yes             Hangup
SIGUSR1       Yes       Yes     Yes             User defined signal 1
SIGUSR2       Yes       Yes     Yes             User defined signal 2
SIGPWR        Yes       Yes     Yes             Power fail/restart
(gdb) handle SIGHUP SIGUSR1 SIGUSR2 nostop SIGPWR
Signal        Stop      Print   Pass to program Description
SIGHUP        No        Yes     Yes             Hangup
SIGUSR1       No        Yes     Yes             User defined signal 1
SIGUSR2       No        Yes     Yes             User defined signal 2
SIGPWR        Yes       Yes     Yes             Power fail/restart
(gdb) handle SIGPWR
Signal        Stop      Print   Pass to program Description
SIGPWR        Yes       Yes     Yes             Power fail/restart
(gdb) handle SIGHUP SIGUSR1 SIGUSR2 SIGPWR nostop
Signal        Stop      Print   Pass to program Description
SIGHUP        No        Yes     Yes             Hangup
SIGUSR1       No        Yes     Yes             User defined signal 1
SIGUSR2       No        Yes     Yes             User defined signal 2
SIGPWR        No        Yes     Yes             Power fail/restart

so saying "all signals cumulatively" is not how the code is behaving.
