SysRq behavior

[Frédéric L . W . Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>]

I don't remember having the same problem months (6?) ago when
I built my first Kernel with this enabled (well, maybe I never
touched the key).

When built into the Kernel, by only pressing the
PrintScreen/SysRq the current application is terminated (tested
on a console and GNU screen). Is this just me or I should
expect it?

[Type "exit" to exit, or "help" for help.]

> zsh: quit

While running the application I press the key and you see the
result. It's very annoying because I accidentaly keep touching
it.

Kernel 2.2.17 on x86 (br-abnt2 keyboard, kbd 1.03). glibc 2.2,
but Kernel compiled with egcs 1.1.2.

The SysRq stuff works:
