boost::process::shell must do signal handling. See [1] and [2]. On windows SetConsoleCtrlHandler() could be used for the same effect.

[2] Specification of the system() function. http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/system.html
I read the specification but I'm not sure why it applies to boost::proces::shell(). For example boost::process::shell() does not wait for the child process to exit - why should SIGINT then be ignored?
Ignore SIGINT until wait() is called.
After all boost::process::shell() should not be a replacement for system()?
Then what is the purpose of boost::process::shell()?
Forgive me if I am looking to aggressive (. It is a fair question.
