That's what gdb said. Haven't had time to play with it again.

Chris committed a patch to nano's CVS which fixes the problem. He stole
the fix from less.

  signal_init()
        - Unconditionally disable VDSUSP if it exists, stops ^Y
          suspending nano on the Hurd.

Can you tell us if this is {the,a} correct fix? I can attach the patch
if you want. The fix is applied to nano 1.1.4-1.diff.gz which I just
uploaded to Debian's incoming today.

Thanks,
Jordi
