Bug#343208: vim-full hangs waiting for signal

Package: vim-full
Version: 1:6.4-001+2
Severity: normal


To reproduce:

cd
vim <somefile>
 (suspend)
cd /somewhere/else
fg
# at this point vim shows a prompt (vi a.c  (wd: ~))
# but does not resume. Pressing ^C resumes.

Looking at the stack, it seems vim is waiting for a signal?!
(gdb) bt
#0  0xb724e277 in pause () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#1  0x0811e9e6 in mch_suspend ()
#2  0x080a4625 in not_exiting ()
#3  0x080aa2a5 in do_cmdline ()
#4  0x080acf25 in do_cmdline_cmd ()
#5  0x08108505 in normal_cmd ()
#6  0x080d0d4e in main_loop ()
#7  0x080d641d in main ()

It does not happen all the time (maybe 60%) and I have not
been able to reproduce this with vim.basic nor vim.python.
