also the grass(6_dev or _trunk) session to break.

This appears to have been introduced in:

  http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/39350#file3

It doesn't appear to be in 7.0, though; if you're seeing it there, I
don't know what's causing it.

The change is a mistake, and should be reverted or modified.

The motivation appears to have been to allow the GUI to kill the
shell; in which case, it should have used some other signal (e.g.
SIGTERM, SIGHUP, SIGQUIT).

I apologise to everyone affected by my bad code. As of r39670 Ctrl+C
should not anymore quit GRASS session.
