[gnu.bash.bug] wait does not wait in bash 1.01

naim@EECS.NWU.EDU (Naim Abdullah) (07/09/89)

One of our bash users pointed out that the bash builtin "wait"
does not wait for the background processes to terminate. I checked
in builtins.c and noticed that the function wait_builtin() was empty!

Repeat By:

bash> sleep 100000 &
bash> wait

Fix:

Implement wait_builtin() in builtins.c ?
