This most probable cause of this problem is a sleep binary that catches SIGINT, but doesn't kill itself with SIGINT afterwards. I could imagine that some braindead port installs such a thing. Maybe GNU shellutils or such? If it's /bin/sleep, these please send me the full kdump output (of SIGINTing the above script, not of `which` :-).
