The next s6+friends version release will have major version bumps all
around, so compatibility is moot anyway. If you really think it's worth it
to swap SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2, I'll do it. (I'd change the non-diverted
meanings in s6-svscan, so that they remain in sync with the diverted ones.)
I can also add SIGWINCH support to s6-svscan, but only when it's diverted,
because there's no possible portable default semantics.
What do you think?
