 I've seen this behaviour for makeworld, and just today for making a kernel.
 It is hard to reproduce for makeworld.  At first I thought it might have
 been caused by a recent commit to the wait loop.  It wasn't exactly that.
 Next I thought that it was a kernel bug in my version of exit1().  Moving
 things back to nearer where they were seemed to reduce the problem but
 didn't fix it.  I'm happy that it is not my bug and can easily be reproduced
 :-).
