Thanks. The only problem is, we have to set CLOBBERS_TYPEAHED. Last time I checked it was set for me :-), Ultrix and something else - but definitely not for Irix. So, either we have different problem on Irix, or Irix should set CLOBBERS_TYPEAHED. Thinking about it: writing general configure test requires spawning a child connected to pty. Unforunately, there are too many ways to create a pty to make such test useful. Another approach is to simply always use FIONREAD if available. What is the point of setting magical CLOBBERS_TYPEAHEAD at all? /andrej
