Quite. But is this the case here? If it is, then it is indeed
*also* an eterm bug, and I should even advocate raising the
priority. I suspect, however, that eterm does not really gratuitously
go around ignoring sigals like that.
Wihch brings me to my original point: unless eterm is doing
what you said above, it is not an eterm bug.
