Okay, this has been done, easily. However, now that I think of it, it
might not be a solution at all:

a) I override signal A using signal.signal()
b) orb.run() gets called
c) Just before actually doing the run() I set a new handler for A that
would check PyErr_CheckSignals()

I just lost the original handler, no?

So what I have to do is either set a default handler for all signals that
in turns calls a specific handler for each signal (which I doubt exists in
Unix), or save all handlers that came in in a structure and call them
accordingly depending on what signal I actually got.

Am I lost?

Take care,
