This is a special case. You don't want to change it to exit_player() here, because
the sig_count==5 check means that we already tried 5 times to exit_player, but
crashed each attempt. Therefore, we now try plain exit(), and if you read the code
further on, you'll see if that ALSO fail, we then resort to kill -9 ourselves.
