In a word, no.
As far as I am aware, there are no calls whatsoever to sigprocmask in
Python 2.4.1 (there were in 2.3.X, but these were connected to threads
and the mentioned script doesn't use them). So you need to do some
digging of your own.

OK, but there's always Gmane if you just want to watch python-dev for
a bit.
