When you suspend a process with Ctrl-Z in ksh on kfreebsd, fg doesn't
get it back. ksh seems to believe there's no more job running, but
the processes are still running.
An example with zile. (Happens with a simple "cat", too, except cat
doesn't switch to fullscreen mode, that's why I use zile as example.)
The problem should be reproducable with any other text-mode
application which has working suspend on Linux or FreeBSD, too.
$ zile
^Z
$ fg
Stopped process continued
and you have suddenly a ksh prompt in the middle of the terminal
which already switched back to fullscreen text-mode for zile.
You can't get zile back with "fg" again. ksh believes there is no
more job running:
$ jobs
$ fg
ksh: fg: no such job
$
But it is:
$ ps auxwww | fgrep zile
Unknown HZ value! (23) Assume 100.
abe 56826 0.0 0.0 4172 0 ? S+ Mar23 0:00 fgrep zile
abe 56823 0.0 0.0 4432 0 ? T Mar23 0:00 zile
$
Since that problem only exists with bash and ksh, but not with zsh,
mksh, csh or pdksh, it doesn't seem to be a general kfreebsd neither
an application (e.g. zile, cat, etc.) problem.
