I certainly appreciate this: any from me could certainly be ignored,
since I'm pretty sure the changes I suggested were incorporated into more
sophisticated variants.

After experimenting, it looks like killing a background job causes the
problem. It doesn't matter if the job is running or suspended, and it
doesn't matter how simple the job is --- it's not just with emacs, it
happens even with sleep:
% stty -a
...
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; dsusp = ^Y;
rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; flush = ^O;
...
% sleep 10 &
[1] 3007
% kill %1
[1] + 3007 terminated sleep 10
% stty -a
...
intr = ^C; quit = <undef>; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^A; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = <undef>;
dsusp = <undef>; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; lnext = <undef>; flush = <undef>;
...
My terminal is reduced to a vt100, since the X terminal server is
down, so debugging is a little unrewarding at the moment and I haven't
looked any further yet.
