Subject: trap(:INT); system(); STDIN.gets(); ^C

Considering a trivial example:


trap :INT do
  puts
  puts 'Bye'
  exit
end

# system 'date'
print 'Say something: '
STDOUT.flush
puts "You said: #{STDIN.gets}"


When prompted to say something, hitting Ctrl+C will call trap(:INT)
block.
However, after uncommenting line 7, Ctrl+C won't cause a call to
trap(:INT) block unless I send a newline or EOF.
Can anyone shed some light on this one?

Platform: linux; ruby 1.8.7

Thanks
