signal problems on BSD
co-op

I have a program written in C that captures the HUP signal sent when a user
logs out and prints some information to a file. This program works fine on
System V but on BSD machines, the program doesn't seem to get the signal and
when I log back on, it's still running (the interrupt function on this signal
has an exit() in it) and nothing was written to the file.
I know the program understands the signal, because when I execute:
% kill -HUP <pid>
the program ends (on both systems) properly.
Any ideas as to why?
