Ok, I think the wrapper approach is a good one. Now remains to decide whether it should stay private to socketserver or be exposed as a generic method (for example in the "os" module as proposed).

By the way, adding a test would be nice, too. I'm not sure it what form it should be done; perhaps register a signal handler and trigger the signal from a sub-thread while the main thread is iterating in a select loop?
