Terminating background bash kills the parent?

Show all headers | View raw

Open a new terminal like xterm, change prompt to something like:

    PS1=' $SHLVL $ '

Start a couple of bash subshells:

    1 $ bash
    2 $ bash
    3 $ echo $$
    9371

Suspend the last one:

    3 $ suspend
    [1]+ Stopped                 bash
    2 $ echo $$
    9313
    2 $

Make the suspended shell continue:

    2 $ kill -CONT 9371

The parent gets killed

    1 $ echo $$
    9034
     1 $
