Details:

I just installed the latest master on FreeBSD, for 24bit colour support, but
nothing happens when I press ^C.  When I do `sleep 5` and then ^C while still
sleeping, "^C" gets printed on the screen, but it doesn't exit.  When I open
up vim and press ^C, I get a message "Type  :quit<Enter>  to exit Vim" which
is what I normally get.  When I type ^C while in a prompt, literally nothing
happens.  When I start up bash (my normal shell is ZSH), I get an interesting
message:

    bash: cannot set terminal process group (24672): Inappropriate ioctl for
device
    bash: no job control in this shell
