If the SF bugtracker had a better search interface, you could see why I have 
such a bleak view of this area of Python. What's there now *mostly* works (I 
exclude freakshows like certain versions of HP/UX, AIX, SCO and the like). It 
took a hell of a lot of effort to get it to this point. 

threads + signals == tears.
