2.8 zeo failure on Windows

I've just discovered that my recent "signal handler" patches to ZEO no
longer work for 2.8.

The patch is quite simple, and is attached to
http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/1788.  However, as this is from a tag in
the ZODB project I have no idea how to go about doing this (with any
confidence anyway!)

Would someone be able to get this in?

Thanks,

Mark.
