No.  If your signal support is POSIX-compatible, it should not do that
because we don't set SA_RESETHAND when calling sigaction(2).  If you
don't have POSIX signals, you had better have BSD-style signal(2),
which doesn't reset either.  If this is not happening as expected,
you will have much worse problems than whether statement_timeout works :-(
