Summary: Ctrl-C causes odd behaviour

Initial Comment:
With various versions of console Python 2.3.x under 
Windows 2000, executed using the "Python (command-
line)" Start Menu shortcut, I have noticed the following 
intermittent errors:

1. When pressing Ctrl-C at the prompt, Python 
terminates.

2. When pressing Ctrl-C during a raw_input, Python 
raises an EOFError instead of KeyboardInterrupt.

I usually cannot duplicate this behaviour by repeatedly 
pressing Ctrl-C or repeating the steps that led to it.
