Hello Phil,

I tried the pyqtSignature+SLOT approach with the snapshot from the  
22nd. It works for QString or int arguments,
but if I use PyQt_PyObject it hangs again. In this case it does not  
matter WHERE I call the connect (main thread, __init__ of the thread,  
run() of the thread) it hangs every time.
I will test it with the "-g" switch today if time permits.

Kind regards,
Michael
