1:  With current CVS head, I can't run rxvt.  It aborts in very early
startup when it tries to read from fd 4, and ends up in
fhandler_base::ready_for_read, which calls  set_sig_errno(EAGAIN).
Unfortunately, _my_tls->errno_addr is NULL at that point, so it gets a SEGV
and bombs.

2:  After firing up a bash shell, I press Ctrl-C at the command prompt.  The
shell is then badly broken in that it doesn't seem able to fork/exec new
commands any more.  When you enter a command (e.g. 'ls') and press return,
you get straight back to a prompt without anything happening, but the shell
is still running, because if you enter the name of a non-existent file or
command you still get an error message.  This state persists until you kill
the shell.  Bash builtins still work, though.


  Anyone else seeing this with the latest snapshot/CVS head build?


    cheers,
