I was more thinking of something like this:
A SIGALRM handler is installed in the original process. SIGALRM continues to be
delivered to the new process after execve but the signal handler is now the
default handler which terminates the process.
The man pages I mentioned should say somewhere if that’s plausible. It looks to
me like that could be what’s happening. But it’s a guess.
If it is that, one would need to arrange for SIGALRM to be ignored before
execve and reinitialize a timers in the new process. Or something like that.
