Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
With this script:
$ cat <<EOF >sigtest.sh
#!/bin/ksh
function f {
trap - INT
sleep 2
}
trap '' INT
f
trap -p INT
sleep 2
EOF
the `trap -p INT' statement gives a strange result with non-printable chars,
whether the f Korn-style function was interrupted or not by SIGINT. It shows
that the handler of SIGINT in the shell was modified by f; according to the
manpage, that should not happen. If the script is interrupted after f has
returned, I get the error message:
^C./sig_test.sh[9]: <weird_data>: not found [No such file or directory]
The strange result can be for example ` új81'. The fact that the script fails
to execute any handler is certainly a bug.
Something not too surprising would be to have `trap - INT' inside a Korn
function make the trap exit the function, as if no `trap '' INT' had been given
before the call to f, which is what happens when the signal is not ignored.
