Under Windows Vista, ctrl-c gives some info before returning to the command prompt, but after hanging, ctrl-c just returns to the command prompt without messages. Under Windows, the osm omniscale example is stable, but the reproject is not stable. Python should behave the same under all OS-ses, but I think MapProxy also uses some natively compiled modules?

MapProxy uses PIL and PyProj which both have native code. It worked on some Windows 2008 Server version the last time I tested it. Can you post the versions you use? (the content of lib/python2.6/site-packages)

Ok, thanks for reporting that. I'll look into that.
