I don't know why fsexchange does this when using doors, but it does:
    sighold(SIGINT); sighold(SIGPIPE); sighold(SIGALRM); sighold(SIGPOLL);
    ret = door_call(doorfd, &arg);
    sigrelse(SIGINT); sigrelse(SIGPIPE); sigrelse(SIGALRM); sigrelse(SIGPOLL);

We'll have to ask Alex why he needed to block signals here, and why a single call
to sigset to hold and release the entire set in one call each was not used.
