As of 2.2-ALPHA, this has not been fixed, and the comments from Wolfram
implied fixing this bug would mean not making LINEMODE the default, which
apparently he wants to make LINEMODE default because "no one would use it
otherwise".   

Personally, I still think that functionality like this that worked
in all the BSDs up thru 1.1.5.1, works on serial terminals and works
on the consoles should also work on FreeBSD 2.x telnet sessions.

Currently, the customer fix is to replace telnetd with the one from
1.1.5.1.

I can't retest 2.2-BETA until we come up with an install that doesn't
die with the "going nowhere without my init" error.

So, this issue and several related PRs regarding wakeup characters and
correct characters being returned during telnet sessions (returning
0x0d instead of 0x0a is another) are still open.
