A device, volatile variables were invented for that. IO is not only
done through the stdio interfaces but any variable that is declared
volatile can have values that are not predictable. An atomic
variable that is attached to an input device can play back any value
that you want to the program. And as I said this works already for C99
at least, though sig_atomic_t is not too comfortable to program with.
