That's the most recent appearance. Perhaps I'm misremembering, but I
had thought there were several "signal-handling" things that have
cropped up since January. CTRL-Z not suspending windows apps, CTRL-C
not able to interrupt a process (regardless of whether its I/O was
redirected), ...
I haven't really paid too much attention to those threads, but that was
my recollection. I have been known to be wrong, however.
Occaisionally. :-)
Since Andy is the one who has actually observed the problems with both
1.1.8-2 and 1.3.1, perhaps he could clarify? Andy? ...
