Andrew M. Kuchling 42db27fedc Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
    exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
    when the main line of the program resumes execution.  Is this guaranteed
    in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?

Also fixed a typo.
