Given that login(1) has the same behaviour there is probably no
alternative.

Hmm. I just tried bash 4.4-beta on a Linux console (Ctrl-Alt-F1), and Ctrl-Z works correctly.

I verified that the shell's parent process was "login".

Perhaps (at least the Debian version of) login(1) *doesn't* do that.

I'm going to hold off on contacting the rxvt and urxvt developers

for now.  If you decide to modify bash to blow away the original signal

dispositions, there's no point in reporting this as a bug in rxvt.

Does that make sense?
