 No, it's not. Apparently it's something POSIX made up recently to
 cause generation of wait results for processes that are SIGCONT'd
 after being stopped. I have no idea why anyone would think this
 useful, or what information it's supposed to report, but as far as I
 know it isn't implemented in NetBSD.
 
 What does the code do with it?
