If I run

    $ EDITOR=3Demacs less foo.c

and type "v" in less, less invokes emacs to edit the file.
If I then press ^G in emacs, both less and emacs see
the SIGINT, not just emacs.

This works correctly for me under BSDi 2.1 with less 290,
emacs 19.29 and bash 1.14.5.  If I compile these versions for
FreeBSD 2.2.5-released they don't work.  The versions of
these programs shipping with FreeBSD 2.2.5-released
don't work either.
