What do you think of using a short test program (ex: uses raise(SIGINT)) in 
./configure to get the "default exit code" to define a constant, and then use 
the constant for exit() in Python?

I dislike the idea of raising signals in general. The exact behavior of signals 
depends too much on the OS, it's hard to get it right. But having a 
configurable exit code looks safe and simple enough.
