Summary: subprocess is not EINTR-safe
Initial Comment:
The subprocess module is not safe for use with signals,
because it doesn't retry the system calls upon EINTR.
However, as far as I understand it, this is true for
most other Python modules as well, so it isn't obvious
that the subprocess needs to be fixed.
The problem was first noticed by John P Speno.
