Hello,

I've noticed that /usr/sbin/watch with options "-co" wants 100% of the CPU 
when a tty is disconnected.  The operating system was 6.0-RELEASE with the 
GENERIC kernel.  Subsequent disconnections and reconnections lead to a 
program crash.

I've since switched back to FBSD 5.4-RELEASE, GENERIC kernel, and the 
problem is not present.

Is this a bug?

Thanks,

Jake
