It appears that at least two of the linux build bots aren't leaving zombie processes around for os.waitpid to wait for, causing ECHILD errors. This would be a symptom of a bug somewhere, but probably not in signal itself. ........ r61696 | georg.brandl | 2008-03-21 15:32:33 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 2 lines Mark the descitems in the tutorial as "noindex" so that :meth: cross-refs don't link to them. ........ r61700 | georg.brandl | 2008-03-21 18:19:29 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 2 lines Fix markup. ........ r61704 | jeffrey.yasskin | 2008-03-21 19:25:06 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 3 lines Try to fix test_signal on FreeBSD. I'm assuming that os.kill is failing to raise a signal, but switching to subprocess makes the code cleaner anyway. ........ r61705 | jeffrey.yasskin | 2008-03-21 19:48:04 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 7 lines Speed test_threading up from 14s to .5s, and avoid a deadlock on certain failures. The test for enumerate-after-join is now a little less rigorous, but the bug it references says the error happened in the first couple iterations, so 100 iterations should still be enough. cProfile was useful for identifying the slow tests here. ........ r61707 | georg.brandl | 2008-03-21 20:14:38 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 2 lines Fix a code block in __future__ docs. ........ r61708 | georg.brandl | 2008-03-21 20:20:21 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 2 lines Add docs for __func__ and __self__ on methods. ........ r61709 | georg.brandl | 2008-03-21 20:37:57 +0100 (Fri, 21 Mar 2008) | 2 lines Add docs for print_function and future_builtins.
