Comment (by taeuber):

 We need to check for being a foreground process only if we are an
 interactive process.

 {{{
 int accept_stdin_commands = 0;
 if interactive()
     if foreground_process()
         accept_stdin_commands = 1;
 }}}

 But being a foreground process can change during execution!
 So we should expect the user to be smart enough to know the implications
 about background processes.
