Detailed Description

Small class to handle std::abort() calls by external libraries.

External libraries like EvtGen seem to prefer calling abort() on error which means destructors are not called and so interception is never finished and thus the error message are lost.

This class installs a SIGABRT handler which is the only way to do something once std::abort() is called and dump all the output intercepted so far back on the original output (stdout or stderr) to basically "reverse" the redirection.

This seems like the best choice since calling abort means the user needs to be able to see the messages
