Sigh. Hold off a wee bit please.
That test I sent eariler was 100% reproducible and your patch fixed
that case. But I found someone else who was having similar problems
and he reports he can still get stuck processes. I'll spend some
time trying to reproduce his case to see if I can reliably make
it happen somehow. He said with this patch it does change what
happens - the process being debugged does notice that it gets hit
with a sighup when he exits gdb but the process being debugged
doesn't die.
