There is a subroutine in lib/subroutines called wait_for_jobs(). It
tries to determine if there's some background job running (for
e.g. emacs compiling lisp code.) Maybe this detect another running
process. But you can just disable this by undefining this subroutine.

If you crate a script class/*.source (this will be sourced) which includes

defnop wait_for_jobs

this should make wait_for_jobs an empty subroutine.
