Ticket #667 (defect)

Since 3.0.1, SIGTERM causes a backtrace instead of shutting down CherryPy. It seems that the patch for ticket #637 installs SIGHUP and SIGTERM handlers as bound methods, but SIGTERM() is not defined that way. (Notice how SIGHUP() has a 'self' argument while SIGTERM() does not.)

Reverting to CherryPy 3.0.0 make the problem go away.

Here is an excerpt from the backtrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/CherryPy-3.0.1-py2.4.egg/cherrypy/_cpengine.py", line 93, in start

TypeError: SIGTERM() takes at most 2 arguments (3 given)
