XCPU is USR2 on NT, and POLL on HPUX, fwiw.

For the fileserver, TERM runs some minor instrumentation over the list of
descriptors.

For logging, in any server
signal TSTP ups the debug level by powers of 5 (1, 5, 25, 125 etc)
signal HUP clears debug level

most processes die on TERM; the fileserver instead uses QUIT (the bosserver
knows this)

that's about it.
