This is a bug in the Configure script.  Do another configure and when
asked if you want to edit config.sh type  !vi config.sh

Now find the line that reads like this:
termio='define'
and change it to
termio='undef'
also find the line which specifies 'termlib' and change it to 'termcap'.
Finish up the edit and then hit return at the config.sh re-prompt.
All will be well from then on.  This bug appears to be caused by
Configure finding termio.h and making a lot of assumptions which
aren't true on Ultrix.
