 ...we were waiting for word on whether the fix actually fixed the
 problem.
 
 Anyway, it's been applied to the netbsd-6 branch now. The problem does
 not exactly affect netbsd-5, plus at this point netbsd-5 is getting
 only critical/security fixes, which this is not, so I think we won't
 try to apply it there.
 
 (If anyone wants to, applying it also requires applying the fix for PR
 35055 and another subsequent change, versions 1.67 and 1.68 of jobs.c,
 before this change, which is version 1.73 of jobs.c.)
