>Description:
If traced process is killed by signal, truss enters infinite loop.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run the following program under truss: int main() {raise(11);}


>Fix:
The problem lies in setup.c:waitevent():
if (WIFSIGNALED(waitval)) {
        info->pr_why = S_EXIT;
        info->pr_why = 0;
        return;
}

pr_why is zeroed just after its set to S_EXIT.
