All, I have searched everywhere (mostly the code and a little google) and I cannot understand where the SIGKILL signal gets checked when it is set as a handler.
Possibly it's not being checked at all by Python, but is being rejected by the system call. The Darwin man page says this about signal(3) in the ERRORS section:
[EINVAL] An attempt is made to ignore or supply a handler for
SIGKILL or SIGSTOP.Not sure why it gets reported as a RuntimeError rather than an OSError, though.
