Ok, the code doesn't really reflect my question here; on computers here
running other OSes, including DragonFly 1.2.x-RELEASE, waitpid() (or wait4)
doesn't return after ^Z+`fg' even with WUNTRACED (I can confirm this by the
fact that warnx() doesn't print "WSTOPSIG(%d) = %d\n" message), thus no such
problem exists.  I don't know if it's an (POSIX-ly or SUS-ly?) expected
behavior, but are we going to change that?
