[issue1975] signals not always delivered to main thread, since other threads have the signal unmasked

[Adam Olsen]

Adam Olsen <rhamph at gmail.com> added the comment:

The readline API just sucks.  It's not at all designed to be used
simultaneously from multiple threads, so we shouldn't even try.  Ban
using it in non-main threads, restore the blocking of signals, and go on
with our merry lives.
