fork/exec vs spawn() - possible bug

 Hello!

 I decided to try to return to my GNU make patch making use of spawn() on
Cygwin. Since upstream project refused to cooperate, i use my own patched
version of Make. And i came across a problem. When spawn() is used,
sub-process fails to process Ctrl-C. Ctrl-C is simply ignored. If i want to
interrupt the process, i have to use task manager. With unmodified Make
everything works fine.
 Can this be considered a bug ?

Kind regards,
