Yeah, I know you can catch a signal and add your own handler, but I 
meant what is the default Python suspend behaviour? Does it execute any 
outstanding exception blocks? What about finally blocks? Or, if about to 
exit a context manager, the __exit__ method?

Or does it just stop and wait till its resumed? Kind of like
an implicit yield statement?
