The following python script cannot be interrupted with Ctrl-C:

def f():
  a=b=0
  while 1:
    if a<b: pass
f()

From the command line if you type

$ python nobreakbug.py

then Ctrl-C has doesn't work. (It can be interrupted with Ctrl-\)

Reproducible: always
Expected behaviour: Ctrl-C interrupts the command line script
Actual behaviour: Ctrl-C just causes ^C to be printed and the script continues to run
