I possibly misunderstood, but just in case I didn't:

The signal handlers that you set with "set-signal-handler!" are not
executed at interrupt time. They just save the signal number and
provoke a GC on the next heap-check that happens to execute. Then the
interrrupt-processing wraps up the execution state and invokes
"##sys#interrupt-hook".
