There is a problem when you start using the clear-to-end-of-line
string, some terminals require padding.  I punted the entire question
of using the termlib routines and just put a check in to strip off
any padding delays.  This is for 4.1BSD, not one of the later a-c releases.

Thanks to ut-ngp!clyde for the bulk of the fixes for 4.1?BSD and
Ken Greer at HP for contributing the csh mods to start with.
