I'm writing in regards to http://bugs.python.org/issue1195571 I'm embedding Python in my application and ran into a need for this functionality. I wrote a similar patch myself, and was about to submit it. When I searched for similar issues I found that this one has been available since 2005. I'd really like to help get this patch approved and integrated into the python sources. I'm sure many other python embedders have run into this in the past - it's a legitimate concern for any process which is not 100% hosted in the Python world. Thanks. Tom.
