This is (believe it or not) a kernel bug (which I haven't tracked
down).  The workaround is to use TIOCSPGRP twice, with the second
being *after* the TIOCSETD ioctl.  I believe (but have not tried)
setting it only once, but after doing TIOCSETD, suffices.  If you
have ever looked at the way TIOCSETD works in the 4.2 kernel, you
will understand why I'm not sure where the bug is, and why I have
not bothered tracking it down....
