+=head1 NAME
+
+sigtrap - Perl pragma to enable stack backtrace on unexpected signals
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    use sigtrap;
+    use sigtrap qw(BUS SEGV PIPE SYS ABRT TRAP);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The C<sigtrap> pragma initializes some default signal handlers that print
+a stack dump of your Perl program, then sends itself a SIGABRT.  This
+provides a nice starting point if something horrible goes wrong.
+
+By default, handlers are installed for the ABRT, BUS, EMT, FPE, ILL, PIPE,
+QUIT, SEGV, SYS, TERM, and TRAP signals.
+
+See L<perlmod/Pragmatic Modules>.
