Your patch unconditionally changes the SIGCHLD signal handler to an invalid
value (you probably meant to use SIG_IGN) without restoring it. An
interactive shell would not be able to use job control until something
internal reset the SIGCHLD handler to the correct value.
An approach that uses pselect() if available and blocks SIGCHLD for the
duration of the call, as Angel suggested, is probably the best approach.
