looks like you're right. further tests show that it is a question, which 
shell i use:

    * ksh and bash: the test program receives the signal and terminates
    * sh: the test program receives the signal and then performs its
      signal handling procedure

(under Solaris 2.8 the test program on all shells shows the correct 
behaviour.)

if i use kill() to send a SIGINT to my test program running on

    * ksh and bash: it terminates without receiving the signal
    * sh: it doesn't receive the signal at all

any ideas/guesses are appreciated.
