I think it may be better to pass 0 to sh_done, because otherwise
it would pass 255 as an argument to sigaction.
Passing 0 would cause it to exit immediately, like a
normal shell execution.
I just noticed the issue while debugging a problem
in tcsh, and ksh would fallback in the pause(), instead
of exiting, if ^C was pressed during:
eval sleep 10
Patch inlined in case it could get removed from email:
