PEP written by Carl Meyer
+PEP 475: Retry system calls failing with EINTR
+----------------------------------------------
+
+:pep:`475` adds support for automatic retry of system calls failing with EINTR:
+this means that user code doesn't have to deal with EINTR or InterruptedError
+manually, and should make it more robust against asynchronous signal reception.
