This doesn't strike me as great - because the ready_to_exit isn't checked in
the loop around StreamLogicalLog(), we'll reconnect if something else causes
StreamLogicalLog() to return.

Why do we need both time_to_abort and ready_to_exit? Perhaps worth noting that
time_to_abort is still an sig_atomic_t, but isn't modified in a signal
handler, which seems a bit unnecessarily confusing.
