Dear colleagues,

-CURRENT from 15 Jul

running `make install' or `make config'  in port directory from non-root user 
with tcsh often (but not always) leads to unexpected su suspension, like:

===>  Switching to root credentials to create /var/db/ports/smartmontools

Suspended (tty output)

make config

[config window here]

exit

This seems to be related to broken signal handling in tsch 6.15.00 discussed 
earlier.

Sincerely,
D.Marck                                     [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN]
