I fail to see the bug here. Python's getpass.py is mimicing the                                                                                                        
behavior of getpass.c                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                       
Your patch tries to remove, termios.ISIG , but it was specifically                                                                                                     
added so that getpass.py is closer to the POSIX's getpass                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                                       
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2003-December/040579.html                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                       
Also, try an example program which uses getpass.c                                                                                                                      
http://www.koders.com/c/fidFB8B9443522DCC3CC53ECCC0FFED861FE898F3A1.aspx?s=%22unknown%22                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                       
And try ctrl-c and ctrl-z for those, the behavior is same what you                                                                                                     
decribe in this bug-report.                                                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                                       
So, having the function behavior sames as POSIX one is really not a                                                                                                    
bug and just a change from the previous behavior. Would you agree to                                                                                                   
this stance and shall we close the bug?
