Thanks for the bug report. I already have this one listed in bugzilla at:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72333
The problem is that signals are processed asynchronously in python
through a "pending calls" API. If no python code gets executed in the
main thread (as is happening while the mainloop is running), then no
pending calls get made, and your unix signal handler gets delayed.
The fix is to automatically add an extra mainloop source that calls
Py_MakePendingCalls(), which should clear these pending calls. I
haven't implemented this yet though. Don't know if I will implement it
for the stable branch.
James.
