I'm using RedHat 6.2, and I find that with this patch something is up with
the controlling terminal (/dev/tty ?).
% yppasswd
Changing NIS account information for werdna on emu.
[1]+ Stopped (tty output) yppasswd
----
% ssh emu
[4]+ Stopped (tty input) ssh emu
- I then find the message asking me for emu's password appears on the
console instead of in the xterm window.
The change log says this change was to remove Warnings;
I guess the setsid call is needed (at least on Linux), even if the
result is never used.
