I think that's just a poorly delimited signature.
FWIW, the comments in main.c:quit() seem to indicate that the terminal
should be reset to a sane state on ^C (which calls quit()):
/*
* Put cursor at bottom left corner, clear the line,
* reset the terminal modes, and exit.
*/
If it's not doing that, I'm sure no one will complain if you submit a
patch (or at least a reasonably detailed PR describing the circumstances
under which you see this behaviour).
