Thanks to everyone!

I will file a bug.

Anyways, I just built a tool to work-around it all. It allows to run psql
from processes which don't handle SIGINT in a proper shell-like manner
(like yarn for instance): https://github.com/dimikot/run-in-separate-pgrp

Basically, without this, an attempt to run `yarn psql` and then pressing ^C
kills yarn (it kills it in Linux too, since ^C propagates SIGINT to all
processes in the foreground group), because yarn doesn't behave nicely with
exit codes (and exit signals) of its child processes. With
run-in-separate-pgrp wrapping, ^C is only delivered to psql.
