am fairly sure that should be 'void twait(int);', and I'd keep "do something
here" to just setting some (global) flag.

<https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Basic-Signal-Handling.html>
(specific to that library but the same principles apply)

and re 4th argument, you're converting the number of seconds to a pointer
(value), did you mean 'pthread_create(&thread, NULL, func, &secs)'?  no need
(usually) to explicitly cast to '(void *)'.
