Here is a first step: add _PyTime_ObjectToTimespec() to pytime.h and use it for signal.sigtimedwait(). signal.sigtimedwait(sigwait, (timeout_sec, timeout_nsec)) becomes signal.sigtimedwait(sigwait, timeout). I chose pytime.h instead of timefuncs.h because I plan to use _PyTime_ObjectToTimespec() in the posix module. I don't want to have a copy of this function in each module: timefuncs.h requires to compile the module with _time.c.
