In the file nondsp.c, a call is made to 'setlinebuf()'.  I don't have this
in SYSV.  What does this routine do?  Is there a SYSV equivalent?

The code is displayed here with setlinebuf commented out:

void
Initialize (void)
{
  mycnt1 = mycnt2 = 0;
#ifdef CHESSTOOL
  /*setlinebuf (stdout);*/
  /* setvbuf(stdout,NULL,_IOLBF,BUFSIZ); */
  printf ("Chess\n");
  if (Level == 0 && !TCflag)
    Level = 15;
#endif /* CHESSTOOL */
}
