I have noticed that the ttyp lines on our Suns retain stty characteristics
even after a user has logged out.  This is ok until someone (or something)
messes with them.  How can I guarantee that all my pseudo terminal lines are
at any predefined stable state?  Must I force an exhaustive set of stty calls
into everyone's .login?
