This bug affects all use of `file.__iter__` and interrupts (EINTR), not just sys.stdin.
You can reproduce the issue by reading from a (slow) pipe in a terminal window and resizing that window, for example; the interrupt is not handled and a future call ends up raising `IOError: [Errno 0] Error`, a rather confusing message.
The Mercurial community is switching away from using direct iteration over this bug; Jun's excellent analysis is included and enlightening:
 https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2016-November/090522.html
The fix is to use
 interrupted = ferror(f->f_fp) && errno == EINTR;
 // ..
 if (interrupted) {
 clearerr(f->f_fp);
 if (PyErr_CheckSignals()) {
 Py_DECREF(v);
 return NULL;
 }
 }
and check for interrupted == 0 in the chunksize == 0 case after Py_UniversalNewlineFread calls, as file_read does, for example, but which readahead doesn't (where the only public user of readahead is file_iternext).
