Tracking kills...

Im getting a process which seems to be spuriously dying (no core, no
logs, just disappears).
I think something might be killing it.
Now, my understanding is that I cant install a signal handler for
SIGKILL - so Im wondering how Im going to prove my assumption that
another process is playing up and killing things when it shouldn't.
If my understanding is correct(from man signal) - and SIGKILLs cant be
detected at the process level, is there a way of configuring the kernel
to log kill -9's?
Or is the only way to play around with permissions so the rouge process
cant signal the other process in the first place (not a very easy option
in my current set up).

Thanks,

Dave
