Bruce reminded me of the ugliness of the V7/oldBSD <-> termios
conversion code, and of our huge previous problems with the kernel
equivalent of this.

So now the US$ 4.99 question: what do people think about completely
ripping out support for the obsolete V7/oldBSD-style sgtty options in
getty?  Does anybody know somebody who's really using all these
f0/f1/f2 flags in gettytab?

If nobody objects within reasonable time, i consider removing all the
compat cruft that's no longer needed.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
