i see jobs left like this:

root     23204  736   10 ttyp1   R   4136:30 /bin/sh version.sh 6.7
root     23394  704    7 ttyp1   R   4133:46 sh -ce /bin/cc -DBSD42

they are shell commands started from make, and end up being left
around if the make is interrupted.

tb yields this kind of info.

Sometimes, execute will be called recursively, like so:
