Yes, that's correct.

The strange thing is ... the problem is _input_ redirection.  This
works fine on MacOS X:

% script > /dev/null

This hangs script in a tight loop:

% script < /dev/null

And I'm not sure where input redirection happens (I verified that standard
input was set to /dev/null via lsof).

I'll experiment some more.
