As a follow-up, relevant output from FreeBSD 9:
$ python
Python 2.7.5 (default, Dec 20 2013, 21:12:37)
[GCC 4.2.1 20070831 patched [FreeBSD]] on freebsd9
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import signal
>>> signals = [s for s in dir(signal) if s.startswith("SIG")]
>>> max((getattr(signal, s), s) for s in signals)
(126, 'SIGRTMAX')
>>> signal.NSIG
32
>>> signal.signal(signal.SIGRTMAX, lambda *a: None)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: signal number out of range
Hence, it's not the fallback to 64, it's FreeBSD's signal.h telling that NSIG
is 32.
