Summary: Signal reception problem. FreeBSD 4.8 and 4.9 after forkpty

Initial Comment:
The attached python file reproduces a bug whereby
Python does not receive alarm signals from FreeBSD 4.9.
 This also appears to be the case in FreeBSD 4.8, and
may be related to the addition of HyperThreading in
FreeBSD 4.8.  If Python (either 2.2.3 or 2.3.3) is
configured with -–without-threads before compiling, the
bug does not exist.

Ooops, again!  I ran on the standard kernel but had python
compiled --without-threads, so of course it worked.

So, to make a long story short, the bug exists -- ignore my
last post.

I was apparently not running on a standard FreeBSD kernel. 
It's working now.
