Thanks for confirming.

Still, it looks like a waste to abuse on SIGINT just to forcibly wake up
the checkpointer and request from it a checkpoint... And you could just
have used a new parameter for the checkpointer appended with
CHECKPOINT_FORCE. I think that my approach of just making the set of
events purely ordered will save from any kind of race conditions, while
I suspect that what you propose here does not close all the holes.
