Yes. Specifically, suspending then fg'ing chpass, chfn, chsh and su
does not work correctly. It seems to be bringing the wrong process
to the foreground the first time I try 'fg', then the second time around
it works.

This was -CURRENT on i386, probably about the 20th of July, using sh, tcsh,
and pdksh. I believe it was fine in early July; ref5 is running a kernel
from July 1 and it works properly.
