Issue 7: Xmonad can be frozen with a typo
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=7

New issue report by stefa... at cox.net:
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Press mod-p
2. Select any program which reads from stdin, such as 'cat'

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would expect the process to nicely SIGTTIN and stay out of the way.  Instead, X/Xmonad stops responding to mod-commands.  I have to use C-M-BS and restart X.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest darcs, i686-linux-gnu (Debian sid)

Please provide any additional information below.

This is especially problematic for me because 411topnm is the first program in the mod-p listing, so if typeahead is missed an attempt to launch any program can trigger this.
