The problem is due to a *bug*.  The best thing to do is to grab a can
of raid.  Spray into emacs.c, and remove all (2) lines that say:
"setpgrp".

In addition, it might well be a good idea if Richard Stallman
or some Important Person at MIT/UUNET/etc could modify the code
and redistribute the bug-free code to all points of interest.
