This is quite interesting. It looks like the issue is caused by the update from dash 0.5.8
on Ubuntu 18 to dash 0.5.10 on Ubuntu 20. Specifically the commit that causes the issue is:
commit 9e5cd41d9605e4caaac3aacdc0482f6ee220a298
Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>
Date: Mon May 7 00:40:34 2018 +0800
jobs - Do not block when waiting on SIGCHLD
Because of the nature of SIGCHLD, the process may have already been
waited on and therefore we must be prepared for the case that wait
may block. So ensure that it doesn't by using WNOHANG.
Furthermore, multiple jobs may have exited when gotsigchld is set.
Therefore we need to wait until there are no zombies left.
Lastly, waitforjob needs to be called with interrupts off and
the original patch broke that.
Fixes: 03876c0743a5 ("eval: Reap zombies after built-in...")

This also means that the Coresight shell test will not be working anymore because I added
the same trap to it so that it could be run in a loop. I'm going to compare the bahaviour
to bash to see which one is doing the right thing and what the correct change to make to
fix it is. Or a bug needs to be reported.
Thanks
