I am running mush 7.1.2 7/11/90 on a Convex C2 running ConvexOS 8.1.
The problem appears to be with signals and shows its ugly head as
follows.

Let's say I am in mush, and am in the process of sending some mail.
I have ~v and am in my favorite editor.  I then ^Z to go off and
do something and the 'fg' to resume.  Here is where the problem is.
Not only is my editor resumed, but so is mush; i.e. I am in the
editor AND mush is expecting input.

I am running the same version Under Ultrix 3.something without problems.
Soooooo, the problem is either a Convex8.1 problem, or a problem with
incorrect #ifdefs in the mush source.

Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
