make distprep broken?

[Tim Rice]

Anyone have a problem with this patch?

It fixes stty problems on SCO with broken (most PC) clients.
It only effects systems that use BSD-style ptys.
Ie. running  "egrep "PTY|DEV" config.h" produces
/* #undef HAVE_DEV_PTMX */
/* #undef HAVE_DEV_PTS_AND_PTC */
/* #undef HAVE_OPENPTY */
/* #undef HAVE_PTY_H */
/* #undef HAVE__GETPTY */
