Hi, i think lash is normally only used for light shell work, most people
use ash if they want a more correct shell.

Im not sure about this specific bug, i doubt its a configuration issue,
you could look at shell/lash.c and compare it to shell/ash.c to see what
it does different with regard to tcsetpgrp.
