Not in the background, but the foreground process is both CPU intensive
and long lived. It's a build program that checks out RCS files,
parses sources, conditionally complies and links, automatically executes
tests - all from a single execution. I've seen this die a few times due to
sig 24. I've just started it after a make world and a kernel build. It
discovers the kernel and compiler/linker are new so it recompiles and
retests everything.
