Let's see. I just logged onto The WELL, whose login message says "UNIX(r) 
System V Release 4.0". ^C out of more(1) doesn't cause the terminal to
stop echoing characters. I then logged onto remarque.org, which says 
"SunOS Release 4.1.1_U1", and *it* doesn't stop echoing when I ^C out of 
more(1).

I can double-check on a few others, but frankly I have never seen this
behavior anywhere but the recent releases of FreeBSD that I've tested.
