There is always a signal handler installed in Python. As I understand it, _sig_on, simply replaces the default signal handler with one that works better with C extension code. Likewise, _sig_off, doesn't turns signals off, it restore Python's default signal handler. Thus, maybe something more like c_signals, cython_signals, extra_signals, signals, etc. would be a better name. I am horrible at naming things though.
