This did confuse me a bit earlier in Peter's email, as I also had this
exact behavior on 5.5.1.r143.g225b35c9070f94cf79 where -CONT didn't even
seem to work regardless of which child process I sent it to. I had just
chalked it up to one of my weird configs, but I guess this is pretty
much happening to everyone running the development versions?

Interestingly enough I did once run into a program that used a SIGCONT
handler, reset to default disposition in SIGTSTP handler, for some internal
callback-ish stuff. My guess was it assumed SIGCONT to be a "safe" sentinel
signal (while completely forgetting about its uncatchable brother SIGSTOP),
but cases like that are mostly just broken curiosities and definitely not
worth worrying about :)
