--- Comment #4 from Jason Vas Dias <jason.vas.dias-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> ---
Should have added:
To test: 
  Save attachment #1 as t_sigio_writer.c
  Save attachment #2 as t_sigio_writer_no_open.c
  $ gcc -o t_sigio_writer t_sigio_writer.c
  $ mkfifo /tmp/a.fifo
  $ ./t_sigio_writer /tmp/a.fifo &
  $ read -d $'\004' res < /tmp/a.fifo && echo "RES: $res"
  RES:
  $
  $ gcc -o t_sigio_writer_no_open t_sigio_writer_no_open.c
  $ ./t_sigio_writer_no_open </tmp/a.fifo &
  $ read -d $'\004' res < /tmp/a.fifo && echo "RES: $res"
  ^C

An strace of 2nd process, which only does fcntl(1,F_SETFL,flags|O_ASYNC),
and does identical signal handling, that had to be killed,  shows it only
gets a SIGIO on FD 0, not on FD 1, after <CTRL+C> is pressed.
