Please close. I /think/ all the issues i've had so far are due to our

handler is indeed invoked.) Since on Windows SIGINT

does not interrupt the Make run?
There's special code in Make to handle the Ctrl-C

The typical case where this happens is when link.exe is running to link
xul.dll in a Firefox build. I'll check at some other random places.
I'll also check what happens with the commands.c code in a debugger.
Follow-up Comment #3, bug #40322 (project make):
So it looks like from observing what happens, that subprocesses do get killed
(although i haven't looked at what happens in a debugger), but they do so
gently. Make doesn't wait for the process to actually be dead. Which has
several interesting
