I can't reproduce this on Mac OS X and RHEL 6 and 7, the systems I have
readily available today.

The shell notes when it sees SIGINT and whether or not waitpid returns
-1/EINTR.  If the sleep exits due to SIGINT, even after the waitpid
returns -1, the shell assumes it didn't catch and handle the SIGINT and
the shell calls the trap handler.
