unfortunately the alert throttling code is not 100% independent of
the trap/monitor handling logic. for example, some of the squelch
logic is still in proc_cleanup (which handles the exit condition of
a monitor), and some of this logic is duplicated in handle_trap and
handle_trap_timeout. this needs to be unified. i made a first-pass at
this in 0.99.1, where i pulled a bunch of the logic out of proc_cleanup
and put it into do_alert. however, there's more work to be done yet
in handle_trap and handle_trap_timeout to make it all consistent.
