  I can't kill this process. I get this now and then.
  My reading of kern/tty.c says shows that we wait on the ttyout
channel in two places, both with PCATCH, and both times we exit if we
get an error.

  So, why can't I kill it? This is 1.2D, I'm just rebooting now with 1.2G.
  
  P.S: i386_iopl(2) is not in libc. I wrote one like:

int
i386_iopl(int bool)
{
  struct i386_iopl_args iia;

  iia.iopl = bool;

  return sysarch(I386_IOPL, (char *)&iia);
}
  
  and it worked, and I was able to bang on the parallel port as an 8
bit output to my heart's content.
