I got 2 failures in the POSIX test on PTY. One is the STOP char
is not sent when the PTY is full. Although write blocks, read on
the blocked PTY doesn't return the STOP char. The other one is
when the PTY is put in back ground, output doesn't generate
SIGTTOU. I can provide testcases if necessary.

HJ,

Can you provide test cases? Both of these cases are
handled by the high-level tty code, and the last time I checked using
the serial driver (which granted was a while ago), neither of these
cases were a problem. So test cases would be most helpful. Thanks!!
