I think some possibly broken behavior with regard to handling terminal
size information may have been introduced within the past month or so.
Old (kernel and userland built Nov 12):
screen size set to 80x30 in /etc/rc
user logs in
programs treat terminal as being 80x30
New (kernel and userland built today):
screen size set to 80x30 in /etc/rc
user logs in
programs treat terminal as being 80x25
user executes 'vidcontrol VGA_80x30'
programs treat terminal as being 80x30
Do I need to change something to be consistent with the new order of
things to get the correct behavior back, or is this some brokenness which
has crept in?
