Good morning folks,

I've been attempting to add the suggested patches to tscript.c that 
Todd Inglett suggested a few months back.  I've had little success.

I suspect that HP isn't following System V type rules for inheriting a 
controlling terminal.  I'm guessing this because a header file called
'sys/bsdtty.h' is included when compiling on hpux.  

Has anyone been able to make a typescript on an HP 9000 system
fork and open its own controlling terminal?

p.s.  If this is fixed in patch 10, where can I get my hands on an early
        copy?  We are connected to the ITC via AFS, so if some kind soul
        could supply us with a path to the patch, ... :)
