This change changes the default handling of linemode so that older and/or
stupider telnet clients can still get wakeup characters like <ESC> and
<CTRL>D to work correctly multiple times on the same line, as in csh
"set filec" operations. It also causes CR and LF characters to be read by
apps in certain terminal modes consistently, as opposed to returning
CR sometimes and LF sometimes, which broke existing apps. The change
was shown to fix the problem demonstrated in the FreeBSD telnet client,
along with the telnet client in Solaris, SCO, Windows '95 & NT, DEC OSF,
NCSA, and others.
A similar change was incorporated in the non-crypto version of telnetd.
This resolves bin/771 and bin/1037.
I am not going to commit anything to this area for a few days.
This is because
1) I want everyone to be DARN sure there is no export of crypto
that may get our USA friends it trouble.
2) I have been asked by the folk developing KTH-eBones to hold off
for their new release.
