Ahhh...now that's a good question ;-) How do you set that? Is it via
stty? I believe it is being set somewhere, but I may be missing it...I'll
have to pour over my scripts again.

Nothing. I was running on console, so the _only_ things running on my
machine were the standard daemons and the telnet session I was using to
read my mail, and it's not like I had anyone connecting to my machine...

Yeah, I noticed...the reason why I didn't post there was that it seemed
more focused on silo overflows, which I thought had a different root
cause, and which I thought that the mac68k port had just about eliminated
(or am I thinking of ring buffer overruns???)
If anyone thinks that it would be useful, I can "me too" on tech-kern...
Later.
