On a first glance, this seems to be bourne-shell specific.  At least ksh and 
bash both behave correctly.

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.
