bash 1.12.2, sun4 and sco and probably others

try the following command

% sleep 100 && echo moo

type ctrl-z before the sleep finished, and you'll see that the "echo moo"
command is executed, even though the sleep command hasn't completed
execution.  csh does the right thing, imo, in not running the echo until
the sleep command has finished.
