Signal 3 is SIGQUIT.  Under the default settings of the SunOS terminal
driver, ^\ (GNUspeak C-\) sends such a signal to the controlling process.
Sounds like a timing problem where emacs sets cooked (or is it cbreak?)
mode just before the ^\ is received and processed by the terminal driver.
To confirm this, you may want to rebind the quit key to the terminal driver
(shell command "stty quit <some other character>") and try the sequence
again.
