Actually your problem is harder than catching SIGHUP.
The authors of the 4.2 BSD TELNET Daemon (/etc/telnetd)
send a KILL signal to the process group of the pseudo-tty
when the connection closes, just moments after the processes
get SIGHUP'ed. This almost assures you of incorrect .newsrc, etc,
files -- just enough time to creat(), then Blam!
If I knew just what this was supposed to fix I'd start thinking
about taking it out...
