All you need to do is set a signal handler and call syslog() to log the 
occurrence in a 'safe' place and then exit().. If the signal is already 
causing your script to abort, you're not doing any cleanup or recovery 
anyway. All we want to establish is if you are actually receiving a 
signal.

Are you reading the AGI environment in the script?

How are you passing variables from Asterisk? As channel variables or as 
command line parameters?

What is the dialplan statement that executes your script?

Can you post the script source?

If you captured the AGI dialog from a call when your script failed and you 
feed the same values (including the AGI environment) into your script from 
a shell does it fail?

On a Unix system level, a 4 means 'Interrupted system call' -- assuming 
this is what your '4' signifies. BTW, I'm a 1.2 Luddite and the AGI return 
value was meaningless back then.
