[Python-Dev] Pythreads and BSD descendants

Folklore that I remember so unreliably I avoid trying to repeat it here held that Python threading had problems on BSD and allied Unixes. What's the status of this? I suspect the answer is, "Everything works, and the only real problem ever was that *signals* have different semantics under Linux and *BSD." Anyone who can answer explicitly, though, would repre- sent a help to me.
