kill no longer functioning, curious?

[Hugo van der Merwe <hugo@adept.co.za>]

I noticed today that not everything responds to SIGTERM anymore... 
SIGKILL, SIGSTOP and SIGCONT still work, but SIGTERM does not.. in some 
cases.

I can kill most apps that are running straight from the command line. I
can however not kill e.g. bash, or ogg123/mpg321 if they're started by
my "music daemon"... (when run from the command line they're fine.)

Any ideas why/how this happened? I'm running unstable, updated yesterday
or the day before.

Thanks,
