Oooooh, sigwait() doesn't accept a timeout! I would be nice to have also sigwaitinfo().. and maybe also its friend, sigwaitinfo() (if we implement the former, it's trivial to implement the latter). Python 3.3 adds optional timeout to subprocess.wait(), subprocess.communicate(), threading.Lock.acquire(), etc. And I love timeout! It was really useful to implement the thread of faulthandler.dump_tracebacks_later().
