We have had similar problems here at Warwick. Our local net uses XON-XOFF
flowcontrol, and therefore I've had to hack out Gosmacs to accomodate this.

The solution is to squirrel away the terminal special characters in the
appropriate structs; place the terminal in CBREAK rather than in RAW mode;
check to see if the user's terminal is on a flow-control line (by looking in
/etc/ttytype); if so, we don't throw the start/stop characters away with all
the rest.

This means that you'll have to rebind search-forward & quote-character (etc)
to sequences not involving ^S/^Q when you are dialling-in , and also the
help info/ manual  will need updating to take account of this.

I admit it's not nice; it was only ever done as a temporary hack, but ....

If you ask, I'll mail you the altered source files (TrmTERM.c & dsp.c)
