[pygtk] Takes two Ctl-C to kill?

We have an admittedly odd setup at work, but I thought I'd ask here first...
If you have a multithreaded PyGtk application and kill it with Ctl-C does it
require one or two Ctl-C's to do the deed?  We are seeing two (using pygtk
2.12).  I sort of assume we are doing something wrong, swallowing the first
exception somehow or unwinding some inner frame.  The next Ctl-C kills the
app.

We're not really concerned with trapping Ctl-C but with other more important
exceptions being silently ignored.

Thx,
