Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Note that there is an attempt at a configure test in 948614, but it seems very LinuxThreads specific. I agree with Anthony that this area is very scary. The last thing we want to do a fortnight before release is break things somewhere they currently work. On the gripping hand, when there's a modern, actually working implementation of pthreads, I don't think we actually need to block signals at all. I certainly don't have the threads-fu to come up with appropriate configure/pyport.h magic though. I'm not sure I have the energy to test a patch on all the testdrive, snake farm and SF compile farm machines either.
