OpenStep (NeXT) and TTY modes

Ok, the correct modes to add, before parsing the client-sent tty modes,
are:

#ifdef HAVE_NEXT
	tio.c_oflag |= ONLCR;
	tio.c_lflag |= ECHO;
	tio.c_iflag |= ICRNL;
#endif /* HAVE_NEXT */

We've tested this change and find that it fixes the problem with tty
modes on OpenStep.
