I first proposed to deprecate the function, but Charles-François thinks that it's unrelated to the PEP (it can be addressed later). The function will still be available and work. > If so, will doing so change the behaviour of those parts of the stdlib which > have already been modified to retry after EINTR? I think that the stdlib should not handle InterruptedError exception anymore in the Python code, to simplify the code. > (I think it would be helpful if we could tell people "if you want the > old EINTR behaviour, just do this simple thing". And I suppose > siginterrupt flag=True is a candidate for that.) Why do you want the old behaviour?
