Tim Lesher <tlesher at gmail.com> added the comment:

This appears to run afoul of Microsoft's "security-enhanced CRT", which aborts a program that calls certain API functions (including signal) with invalid parameters.  

PyOS_getsig() has conditionally-compiled code added to deal with this (and handle invalid signal values before passing them to the CRT); PyOS_setsig() should get the same treatment.
