SignalSet allows catching of multiple signals. A SignalSet consists of
a number of signals and also implements the handle:do: method just as
signals do. However, any signal from the SignalSet will, if signalled, lead 
into the handler.
For more detail, see comment in Signal and examples in doc/coding.
