Synopsis: nbmake loses track of its children?

State-Changed-Why:
Rev 1.117 of usr.bin/make/job.h applies change '3' above.
I suspect that the build scripts in src/distrib/sets/sets.subr could be
changed to use a quoted 'here doc' when the shell would have a bound on
the data size and would write it all into the pipe without forking.
OTOH they could be changed so that they contain shell loops/conditionals
instead of make ones....
