[Rd] Catch SIGINT from user in backend C++ code

Hi, I was wondering if anybody knew how to trap SIGINTs (ie Ctrl-C) in backend C++ code for R extensions? I'm writing a package that uses the GPU for some hefty matrix operations in a tightly coupled parallel algorithm implemented in CUDA. The problem is that once running, the C++ module canno
