Inspired by Tim Peters' 1.14->1.15 checkin to asynchat Quoting orignal message: ''' Fix from the Madusa mailing list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/medusa/message/333 It's clear that Medusa should not be checking for an empty buffer via "buf is ''". The patch merely changes "is" to "==". However, there's a mystery here all the same: Python attempts to store null strings uniquely, so it's unclear why "buf is ''" ever returned false when buf actually was empty. *Some* string operations produce non-unique null strings, e.g. '''

/* Sigcheck is similar to intrcheck() but sets an exception when an
   interrupt occurs.  It can't be in the intrcheck.c file since that
   file (and the whole directory it is in) doesn't know about objects
   or exceptions.  It can't be in errors.c because it can be
   overridden (at link time) by a more powerful version implemented in
   signalmodule.c. */
