Package: login
Version: 1:4.0.3-36

this bug has been introduced since 1:4.0.3-35 ... perhaps related to the 
fix for #314727.

with zsh as your shell, this sequence is busted:

	dotlark:~% su -m
	Password:
	root@dotlark:~# suspend

	zsh: suspended  su -m
	dotlark:~% fg
	[1]  + continued  su -m
	root@dotlark:~# zsh: suspended (signal)  su -m
	dotlark:~% wwat
	zsh: command not found: h

at the end there i tried to type "what" just to show that the input was 
going to both shells simultaneously.

the problem doesn't seem to happen if i drop the "-m", or if i use bash or 
tcsh as the shell instead... the latter might point to this being a zsh 
problem, but it is a new thing since -35 and zsh hasn't changed, so i 
figured i'd start here.
