Summary: readline module that checks signals

Initial Comment:
Attached is a patch against the readline module that
hooks the readline event hook to call the
PyErr_CheckSignals(). This way, Python signal handlers
get run even if you are sitting at a readline prompt
(where they didn't before). this solves a long-standing
annoyance for me. whew.

Sorry, I don't think this is correct. The code ignores
errors from PyErr_CheckSignals(). What will happen to an
exception raised by the handler call?
