--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 Python's signal module lacks a 'SIGALRM' attribute on windows, causing the
 launch_tor function [1] to die with an AttributeError. We should look for
 an alternative for function timeouts that work on windows. Caught by
 pythonirc101.
