using ALRM signal in mod_perl script

hi all, 

is it save to use ALRM signal in my mod_perl script. I hook a handler there, 
to unlock my semaphores in emeregency. 
I have a feeling, that apache or mod_perl have conflict with my handler on 
ALRM, becouse it gets executed, when httpd child process was sleeping.
I use apache 1.3.26 and mod_perl 1.27 on a linux box with kernel version 
2.4.11

10x in advance
