Ok. I'll apply it once I'm through Niklas Linströms changes.

There's a SIGINT trap in _connect(). I don't have access to a windows
machine so I don't know how compatible that is.

There might also be an issue with the user-wide configuration file.
Fabric uses `os.path.expanduser("~/.fabric")` to find that file, but
there's some windows specific issues with that as detailed here:
