I've made a patch (attached) to subprocess.py (and test_subprocess.py) that should guard against EINTR, but I haven't committed it yet. It's quite large.
Are Python modules supposed to handle EINTR? Why not let the C code handle this? Or, perhaps the signal module should provide a sigaction function, so that users can use SA_RESTART.
This is a snippet from a email sent in 2004, I was wondering if there was any update on this issue. Are these issues supposed to be handled on a per application basis, or will a fix go into Python in the near future?
