I'm using GNU Emacs v18.38 on a microvax running a BSD 4.2 variant.
Sometimes, but not always, when I start a subshell (M-x shell, say), it
complains: 
  Warning: no access to tty; thus no job control in this shell...
and a few commands don't work.  (Naturally, job-control commands don't.
Also, sending a string to the terminal usually causes it to echo the string,
except when there's no job control.)

Any ideas about how I could fix this?

Thanks,
