Any implementation of getchar() that does not require an entire
line to be typed before returning data from the terminal in the
default case is broken.  This behavior is permitted only in raw
(non-canonicalizing) mode, which is not supposed to be enabled by
default.  Sounds like VAX-C ver 2.2 is doing this right.
