Am I the only one that thinks that a "pause" builtin might occasionally be useful?  \
It's easy enough as a loadable object, but if there's more than just rare use for it, \
why not add it?

My loadable looks something like this (minus include files):
int b_pause(int argc, char **argv)
{
   if (argc>1) {
      fprintf(stderr,"usage: %s\n",argv[0]);
      return 2;
   }
   pause();
   return 0;
}
