Summary: PyErr_CheckSignals returns -1 on error, not 1

Initial Comment:
Documentation for PyErr_CheckSignals [1] says "If an
exception is raised the error indicator is set and the
function returns 1; otherwise the function returns 0.".  

But the code I see tells me the function returns -1 on
error.

I posted on the ML [2] and got no reply in over a
month, so GvR suggested to fix the docs (patch attached).
