Thanks for the patch.  I've rewritten it to minimise the impact.
However, the end result should be fairly similar.

Please test this and let me know if there are any issues.

When a tty is unavailable, or the shell is in the background,
job control could still be used for the purpose of setting
process groups.

This is based on work by Jilles Tjoelker from FreeBSD and Steffen
Nurpmeso.
