- I think something is wrong with signals with bash. When I do a make,
- I can type ^c to stop it under zsh. But under bash, the make is
- stopped. However, those makes in subdirs continue.

- BTW, something is very strange with mm in 0.97 pl2. Some
- binaries, mount and tools/build, linked with static or
- old shared libs die with segmentation fault. mount and build
- linked with jump table 3.0 work fine.
