My linux machine's console was hung after an aborted attempt to
update to 8.4.8.  The update failed because mkserv was not found
(already fixed by Greg's patch yesterday).

From a quick glance at the update_ws script, perhaps it should do
the mkserv updatetest before shutting down dm.

Also, there were several "console pty: Interrupted system call"
messages on the console, so dm probably needs to ignore EINTR.
