  Well, "run programs and sometimes it happens when you press Ctrl-C" isn't
exactly reproducible, so I was trying to find out what the message _means_
so that I could try and make a few guesses at how to trip whatever condition
it indicates so that I might have a chance of being able to make a testcase.
