Description

From: Aliaksey Kandratsenka

TOSTOP doesn't work well with some software. Examples known to me are:

  • debugging multithreaded program with gdb (gdb job stops)
  • running 'check' tests in fork mode (default) that do some output

(tests mysteriously fail due to timeout)

IMO TOSTOP adds too little value compared to compatibility problems it
creates.
