test_threadsignals hangs at:
----------------
class ThreadSignals(unittest.TestCase):
    def test_signals(self):
        signalled_all.acquire()
        self.spawnSignallingThread()
        signalled_all.acquire() <~~~~ here
----------------

self.spawnSignallingThread() calls:
----------------
def send_signals():
    os.kill(process_pid, signal.SIGUSR1)
    os.kill(process_pid, signal.SIGUSR2)
    signalled_all.release()
----------------

The hang may be related to regrtest timeout: faulthandler had a bug, but the bug is supposed to be fixed (#11753, #11755).

See also issue #11223.
