As I said:

ie I started with google (which was not useful) and didnt really try info.
[And for some strange reason didnt look for SIGUSR but SIGINT SIGQUIT etc]

However on a docs-improving note here's this little titbit:
[On other thread]
There was this claim "letrec is nice" or some such.
Since I know letrec from scheme etc but never seen in elisp I was curious.
I find:
 describe-function tells nothing about the recursion
 the elisp info pages (index) seems to not have it at all
