No. This works fine with my setup (2.1.119, UP). I tried first of all the command you suggested, but on our network that took < 5 secs to complete, so couldn't type the kill command in in time! Then I upped the blocksize parameter to 50000k. I managed to send both signals fine (`dd' quit on the second signal as expected). I also left bs alone and set count=10000, causing `dd' to quit on the first signal.
No crashes, no messages, however. What's your kernel version?
Rich.
