Looking at the source, this part is likely what causes SIGINT to work: (from src/bin/sh/jobs.c in the `dowait` function, note that this is -current source) | do { | pid = waitproc(flags & WBLOCK, job, &status); | TRACE(("wait returns pid %d, status %d\n", pid, status)); | } while (pid == -1 && errno == EINTR && gotsig[SIGINT - 1] == 0); Note the special case granting SIGINT to exit the loop when waitproc (i.e. waitpid(2)) comes back with EINTR, while other signals are effectively ignored.
