Don't, DON'T use the stty/gtty calls in the UniSoft System III/V
implementations. The code that is in the kernel to support this is an
AT&T hack to attempt backward compatability and it does not work correctly
in all cases. You will be MUCH better off in the long run if you bite
the bullet and learn the horrific System V tty driver ioctl's and
re-write whatever communication program (kermit in this case) with
them. And watch out for ICANON and ISIG. They go in lflags, not iflags.

	Good Luck,
