Hmmm: in my copy of *Python Essential Reference* it says that Python
already installs a SIGTERM handler.  (It also alludes to the behaviour
that Neil and Michael described.)  So I don't see why installing a
Python-level signal handler would change OpenBSD's behaviour here.

Can any other OpenBSD users supply details here?  Eg. try running a
Quixote app via FastCGI, and then "kill -TERM" your application and see
what happens.
