Hi People ! Hi Glynn !

Finally I found a bug. I was printing received signal thus:

printf("\nSIGNAL: STOPING APP (%d %s)\n", sig, 
      (sig=SIGTERM) ?"SIGTERM" :
         ((sig=SIGABRT) ?"SIGABRT" :
            ((sig=SIGINT) ?"SIGINT" :"<undefined>"))
      );

Setting the signal as SIGTERM, because I was using "=" instead "==".

Thank you very much, for help me to find the bug.
