:As far as I remember, our make(1) has the same bug. It can be triggered 
:quite easily (at least here) by going to /usr/src, do 'make clean' and 
:trying to ^C it. I just tried it.

:Sascha

    There might be another issue with signal races and fork().  The only
    two possible issues are programs ignoring ^C and a signal race in
    fork() (where the signal gets caught during the fork() but the
    child is then created and never gets the signal).
