Hmm....  then this *does* work on NetBSD-1.3.2!
 
	$ uname -rsm
	NetBSD 1.3.2 sparc
	$ sleep 5 ; cat
	^Y
	asdf
	%1 Suspended
	$ $ asdf: not found
	$ jobs
	[1] 25594 Suspended           cat

and still works on 1.4.1 too:

	$ uname -rsm
	NetBSD 1.4.1 i386
	$ sleep 5 ; cat
	^Y
	laksdjflaksdjf
	%1 Suspended
	$ $ laksdjflaksdjf: not found
	$ jobs
	[1] 18152 Suspended           cat
