guile configure problem / ? readline signal handling problem

guile configure problem / ? readline signal handling problem

[Michael Talbot-Wilson]

With bash 2.03.0(1), readline 4.3 (or 4.2) compiled with gcc 3.2/glibc
2.2.5/GNU ld version 2.13.90.0.4 on Linux version 2.4.20-rc3 compiled
with gcc version 3.2, attempting to run configure for guile 1.6.3.


configure hangs indefinitely at this point:

checking for rl_pre_input_hook... yes
checking if readline clears SA_RESTART flag for SIGWINCH...

I was using a separate build directory.  There is no such problem if
you don't do that.

This only happens if configure is run in the background.

Interesting.  The test program is stopped by SIGSTOP when readline
tries to somehow access stdin (it isn't allowed to really try to read
something, but it stops nevertheless).  I have changed the testprogram
so that it reads from /dev/null.
