My local copy of ghc-4.08.1 likes to stop a program when running it
with "&" (nohup) by default, I have to call
Posix.installHandler Posix.sigTTOU Posix.Ignore Nothing
first to get the desired behaviour. However, my local copy of
Stevens´ "UNIX Network Programming" says:
"SIGTTOU: [..] By default a background process is allowed to write to
its control terminal, but you can specify that a background write is to
generate this signal instead."
In other words: Unless I´m setting setting this signalhandler myself to
block me and didn´t notice it or ghc is plainly wrong.
In the latter case SIGTTIN should be changed, too.
