    SignalSet allows catching of multiple signals. A SignalSet consists of
    a number of signals and also implements the #handle:do: and #catch: methods
    just as signals do. 
    However, any signal from the SignalSet will, if signalled, lead into the handler.

    There is also a special signalSet, which can be used to catch any
    signal in the system - but this should no longer be used, since catching
    Object>>errorSignal has now the same effect.

    For more detail, see comment in Signal and examples in doc/coding.

    Notice: SignalSets are not needed when a group of children of a common signal
    (such as arithmeticSignal) is to be handled; the parent signal of those will
    also handle all children.
    Use signalSets if totally unrelated signals should be handled by one common
    handler.

     If the signal is raised multiple times, only the first raises parameter is remembered,
     and only a single raise is performed after the blocks evaluation.

     Deferring makes sense for some signals, such as UserInterrupt or AbortSignal, 
     which must occasionally be delayed temprarily until a save place is reached 
     (especially when packages are sent across a communication channel, and you dont want
