Summary: automatic margins broken


The problem is that the automatic margins feature is broken
in terminal emulation (async_main) from the phone manager.  This has
been broken for some time.  At one time I had an async_main
with this fixed from Jonathon Clarke, but that was for 3.0
and no one supports the fix in 3.5 or 3.51.  The fix got
"lost" by the developers.

As a work-around you can take /etc/termcap and edit out the
:am: option.  Also go to the terminfo database and
infocmp -> vi -> tic the s4 entry.  Warning this will affect
local use as well as dial-in use.
