Subject: Unsupported signals on some platforms throw warnings
forks.pm 0.25 signal awareness currently assumes it will be managing a specific subset of total system signals at all times. Some platforms do not have all these signals, such as SIGEMT, leading to unnecessary warnings like: No such signal: SIGEMT at <PATH>/forks-0.25/blib/lib/forks/signals.pm

This is a harmless issue but can occur quite frequently. Attached is a patch that will portable silence such warnings. This fix is targeted to be included in the next module release.

Forks 0.27 should address most signal portability issues.
