I was able to reproduce this bug on Sparcstation-1 SunOS 4.0.3c and
Vax 8530 Ultrix 3.0.

Running any builtin run in the background seems to cause a coredump:

$ echo hi there &
describe_pid: No such pid (1404)!

Tell jjd@bbn.com to fix this someday.
Mailing a bug report...hi there
done.
Stopping myself...Abort (core dumped)


I tried this also on an HP 9000 Series 330 running HP-UX 6.2, and it
didn't core dump, but then again, the HP doesn't have job control so
that probably makes a difference.
