in reply to Managing the fork/execing and reaping of child processes

UPDATE: I'd assumed that I was frozen in sleep, but I put a print in just before the sleep, and it doesn't get executed. Running under perl -d, I'm unable to ^C when the freeze occurs.

    Unbuffered print?

      Good thought - I added $|=1 but still no message output before sleep.
        Are you printing to the terminal? That can be interrupted by a signal.
