This bug (or another one with identical symptoms) affects the 'su'
commands within the ports build system if you are using tcsh or zsh
and maybe related to the gdb-with-tcsh problems that have been
reported.  It appeared in -current in the middle of 2006.  The
suggestions to date have been that there's something wrong with the
signal handling in the kernel but you have opened a new line of attack.
