Summary: sigwinch crashes python with curses

Initial Comment:
[forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/178205]

I'm not able to reproduce this bug in current 2.1/2.2.
In 2.3 CVS 20030614, changing the window size of an
xterm results in the crash

The following code crashes. It does not occur when
getkey () is not used.

# Crash python

import curses, signal, time, sys

def sigwinch (signum, frame): return

win = curses.initscr ()

signal.signal(signal.SIGWINCH, sigwinch)

while 1: win.getkey ()

curses.endwin ()


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "curs.py", line 9, in ?
while 1: win.getkey ()
_curses.error: no input
