Hash :5014b1c2 Message :tap/awk: improve comments about Korn shell signal handling issues
* lib/tap-driver.sh: Link an Austin Group discussion about how
shells are allowed, and even encouraged, to set the special
variable `$?' to values greater than 256 to report termination
of a child by a signal. Improve and extend comments about our
workarounds for unusual korn shell signals' propagation.
Thanks to Eric Blake for the pointers.
