Uhm, ksh doesn't have job control.  It *supports* it, but it's the kernel
which has job control.

The solution you gave only masks the symptom; the problem is that cu is
being set SIGTTOU when it tries to write, after noticing any one of a few
special characters:  intr, eof, and kill, I believe.

So, yes, doing a 'set +m' will solve it, for ksh.  But that has its own
problems, as well.
