SIGINT not received by processes started by system(3)

If I compile and run the program

    #include <stdlib.h>
    main () {
        system ("sleep 1001");
        return 0;
    }

then I expect it to terminate if I execute the shell command

     killall -2 sleep

elsewhere, but it doesn't.

I searched the archives and couldn't find this mentioned.

Has anyone else run into this?
