Public bug reported:
In the middle of a script run by cron, I'm restarting the cron service
(service cron restart).
The script finishes just fine on 14.04 (and keeps doing whatever is
after the cron restart). On 16.04, it kills the script meaning that it
kills all its children.
Behavior should be reverted where children are not killed upon restart.
