Seems to also depend on which $PATH is set, because with
break=bottom i notice missing libs (ncurses & CO) whereas with
break=top `more` seems to behave as mentioned in the original
bugreport.

Invoking `more` without input/any options also causes headaches
because Ctrl-C doesn't work as expected (AFAICS due to lack of job
control).

maks, we should investigate on that.
