restore SIGCHLD sighandler to default before spawning a program | |
From sigaction(2): | |
A child created via fork(2) inherits a copy of its parent's signal dispositions. | |
During an execve(2), the dispositions of handled signals are reset to the defau… | |
the dispositions of ignored signals are left unchanged. | |
This refused to start directly some programs from configuring in config.h: | |
Some reported programs that didn't start were: mpv. | |
Similar to the commit e81f17d4c196aaed6893fd4beed49991caa3e2a4 from dwm. | |
