(** [protect_sigalrm f x] computes [f x], but if SIGALRM is received during that
    computation, the signal handler is executed only once the computation is
    terminated. Otherwise said, it makes the execution of [f] atomic w.r.t.
    handling of SIGALRM.

    This is useful for example to prevent the implementation of `Timeout` to
    interrupt I/O routines, generating ill-formed output.
