+  __DisableSignalHandlers
+
+    If this option is set to true during startup, then Tor will not install
+    any signal handlers to watch for POSIX signals.  The SIGNAL controller
+    command will still work.
+
+    This option is meant for embedding Tor inside another process, when
+    the controlling process would rather handle signals on its own.
+
+    This option cannot be changed via SETCONF; it must be set in a torrc or
+    via the command line.
+
+    (Boolean. Default: 0.)
