There is a more fundamental reason why it would not work:
a non-static method can not be a signal handler, since the kernel
will not supply 'this' parameter to it.

Besides, all kinds of things (operator new; cout; exceptions,
etc.) do not work in the (async)signal handling context, so putting
any C++ into the body of a signal handler will likely only itroduce
hard to replicate bugs.

What's so cool about it? Sounds pretty lame to me.
