I have to disagree. There may be occasional cases where the macros
provided by the system exactly match the features you want to use, but
you'll never lose anything by sticking to #ifdef JOBCONTROL and putting

	#ifdef SIGTSTP
	#define JOBCONTROL
	#endif

inside a .h file. This way someone can (1) figure out what you really
meant while reading the code; (2) change the definitions with as little
work as possible in case you messed up.
