Re: strange gnome-terminal behaviour [PATCH] for gdm

[Roberto Zunino <zunino cli di unipi it>]

Could someone see if the following patch make sense, and in that case
apply it? This resolves a problem causing gnome-terminal to hang (since
gdm caused the SIGCHLD signal to remain blocked, I think).

I think that here the old mask is saved in omask, and then never restored.
