In issue5672 Martin said:

  If somebody would provide a patch that adds prctl to the posix module,
  that would be fine with me - we have a long tradition of exposing all
  available system calls if somebody wants them.

However, you are talking about a System V call, not a posix call, so
it's not clear to me if the same rules apply.

I suggest bringing this up on python-ideas.

(BTW, sys is for python system stuff, not OS system stuff (which goes in
the 'os' module).
