After a quick look, I don't see anything wrong with r68460, but it might very well have exposed this problem which was lurking before. > When Python is compiled without threads, the behavior is normal. We've already had some problems - especially on *BSD - when mixing signals and threads (and it might be even worse on OpenBSD, since pthreads are implemented in user-space). However, IIUC, in this case you only have a single thread, right? Could you post the output of an strace (well, ktrace on OpenBSD)? Is Python compiled with readline support? ---------- nosy: +neologix _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8714> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
