See 9498: it caused problems in a case where jobtab[thisjob] didn't
have any procs so that waitjobs() didn't call waitjob() -- and hence
no child_whatever().

No, because in that case we *were* calling waitjobs(), without any
effect, though.

Sorry, I had forgotten about that. Although it may be cleaner to put
it directly after the waitjobs() (and call it only if that was
called).

We could also enhance the test for the child{un,}block() to not call
them if we are sure that the waitjob() was called.

This patch instead of Bart's.
