Ralf Schmitt added the comment: In normal application code that signal.alarm is called for a reason. And the caller most probably expects it to interrupt the read calls. So I think the proposed patch is wrong.
What was the signal interrupting the read calls? maybe SIGPIPE? ---------- nosy: +schmir _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1068268> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
