I'll look into this, but could you please see if the binary I made indeed
masks exceptions? Try Ctrl-C several times while the child runs: the
stock binary should say "*** Interrupt", the new one should mostly say
nothing (unless you are very lucky and a quick typist) when you set
W2KBUG.
(I'm thinking that perhaps I have some bug in the way I toggle exceptions,
and we are drawing wrong conclusions.)
