Description:

When trying to write a program and start it in an initrc script, I observed
a strange behavior: if a subshell is started by a subshell of that script,
and the inner subshell runs "trap ... EXIT", it unsets the signal ignore
flag of other signals.  I'm not sure whether this should be called a bug,
or whether it is a problem caused by my own configuration.  Anyway here is
how I reproduce my problem.

Repeat-By:

$ cat t.sh
echo t $BASHPID
trap '' USR1
grep SigIgn /proc/$BASHPID/status
bash --rcfile t2.sh
$ cat t2.sh
echo t2 $BASHPID
grep SigIgn /proc/$BASHPID/status
(
    echo subshell $BASHPID
    grep SigIgn /proc/$BASHPID/status
    (
        echo subsubshell $BASHPID
        grep SigIgn /proc/$BASHPID/status
        echo trap $BASHPID
        trap 'echo hello' EXIT
        grep SigIgn /proc/$BASHPID/status
    )
)
$ ./t.sh
t 15141
SigIgn: 0000000000000204
t2 15143
SigIgn: 0000000000380004
subshell 15145
SigIgn: 0000000000000200
subsubshell 15147
SigIgn: 0000000000000200
trap 15147
SigIgn: 0000000000000000
hello
$

Note that the final SigIgn flag is completely reset, which is what I won't
expect.  The same problem won't occur if --rcfile is not used in t.sh.  And
the problem also didn't show up in bash 4.4.
