I see. So you may like to hear that, when you upgrade to v0.99.1 or higher, that the sleeping/stopping of bibsched tasks has become much safer when compared to v0.92.1, because now the tasks reply to sleep/stop/etc commands from the scheduler only in places declared as safe by the tasks themselves. So sometimes you have to wait before a task obeys you, but OTOH it is much harder to break a task by sending it various signals in various times.
