Even though rc blocks SIGTSTP after a fork(), it's still seen (as far
as I can tell); the process dies with a SIGKILL. As an example, on a
Sparc do a trace of 'telnet' by itself; at the telnet> prompt, hit a
^Z; you'll see the two signals go in before telnet kills itself.
Ideally, doing ^Z should yield '; ^Z' at the prompt, not a signal.
I've been burned by this more times when I'm dialed up from home than...:)
