Noticed it in fish shell, below the bugreport:
https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/3645
Komment from ridiculousfish:
{{{
krader is right that execve is allocating memory, and I would tentatively
argue that this is a bug in Haiku. In particular POSIX requires that
execve is async-signal safe, which means it may be called from a signal
handler, and thus must not call malloc internally.
}}}
Original bugreport, for the history:
Reproduction steps
write characters into your Terminal
press Ctrl-C
Repeat
....
Profit! Fish hangs after Ctrl-C and aren't accept any input anymore, so
you need to kill it. I never had any problems like this with the 2.3.x
releases. (if i remember correctly.)
