Hi Murilo,

LGTM.

Just a comment:

I _really_ don't want to bikeshed here, but I vouch for keeping the
"unhandled" word before the signal name, like:

[...] pandafault[6352]: unhandled segfault (11) at 000000013a2a09f8 nip [...]

because the issue reported here is really that we got a segfault _and_
there was no handler to catch it.

But feel free to wait for additional comments to decide it.


Cheers,
Gustavo
