[python-win32] How to interrupt embedded python interpreter

[Chaffin, Michael]

I am trying to figure a way to pass on an interrupt to embedded python
interpreters, specifically say when the  my python script object goes out of
scope. I have found an article by Stefan Migowky titled, 'Embedded python:
how to force a break to endless looping python'. 

(http://groups.google.com/groups?q=python+%22Stefan+Migowsky%22&hl=en&lr=&ie

wsintern.dspace.de&rnum=13 ) 

The problem I see with this solution is patching the python dll, and the
patch is kind of old. Is there another way to interrupt embedded python
interpreters ? 

If not, will the patch from Stefan still work on python 2.2 or 2.3 ?
