R. David Murray added the comment:

I wonder if you could achieve what you want (which I always hope programs I use 
never do[*]) by writing your own signal handler.

In any case, I don't believe there is a bug here.  This is working as designed.

[*] There are many times I have found myself leaning on ctl-C on autorepeat 
hoping that the ctl-c will happen at a point where the application isn't 
catching it, so that I can get the darn thing to abort.  I realize you are 
proposing to do this only to then do the abort...but what if there is a bug in 
your code?  I'd *much* rather see a traceback than have to fall back to 'kill'. 
 At least with the traceback I know the interpreter has had a chance to clean 
up.
