In other words, the shell is failing to notice that some of its child
processes have exited.  This is a shell bug; we've seen it before on
some platforms (obsolete HPUX versions, in my experience).  You can
probably work around it by reducing the maximum concurrency setting
in the regression script.  See the regression test discussion in the
administrator's guide.
