After compiling this up on a sun (config type: sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3),
it seemed fine until we used it as the editor for rn (or Pnews) by
setting VISUAL to be emacs -nw.  All seems fine until you finish the
edit session, and return to rn (or Pnews).  At this stage, you find
that your stty settings are no longer sane.  In particular, echoing has
been switched off and returns are not recognised.  This is what stty
thinks the settings are after exitting:


  speed 38400 baud, 34 rows, 80 columns
  -parenb -parodd cs8 -cstopb -hupcl cread -clocal -crtscts 
  -ignbrk -brkint -ignpar -parmrk -inpck -istrip -inlcr -igncr -icrnl -iuclc 
  -ixon -ixany -ixoff -imaxbel 
  -isig -iexten -icanon -xcase -echo echoe echok -echonl noflsh -tostop 
  -echoctl -echoprt echoke 
  -opost -olcuc -onlcr -ocrnl -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel 
  min 1, time 0
  erase  kill   werase rprnt  flush  lnext  susp   intr   quit   stop   eof
  ^?     ^U                                        ^G                   
  
These are the correct settings:
  
  speed 38400 baud, 34 rows, 80 columns
  parenb -parodd cs7 -cstopb -hupcl cread -clocal -crtscts 
  -ignbrk brkint ignpar -parmrk -inpck istrip -inlcr -igncr icrnl -iuclc 
  ixon -ixany -ixoff imaxbel 
  isig -iexten icanon -xcase echo echoe echok -echonl -noflsh -tostop 
  echoctl -echoprt echoke 
  opost -olcuc onlcr -ocrnl -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel 
  erase  kill   werase rprnt  flush  lnext  susp   intr   quit   stop   eof
  ^?     ^U     ^W     ^R     ^O     ^V     ^Z/^Y  ^C     ^\     ^S/^Q  ^D     

This doesn't seem to be a general bug in emacs, since it works fine
when installed for our Indigo and Indy systems and our SG Challenge
system (mips-sgi-irix4.0.5H and mips-sgi-irix5.2).
