I may have missed it. Neither the README on PyPI nor the README on
GitHub appear to mention it.

Apparently, it's a Python 'feature'. The ability to bind signals from
non-main threads varies depending on the underlying platform, and in
order to behave the same everywhere, Python just goes and forbids it
altogether. Even if the threading implementation on /your/ platform
would allow it. Meh.

Err, I'm not the person who submitted that bug report.
