I am running GNU emacs on an Interactive UNIX 386 system.  When using
emacs from the Console there is no problem, but when I login over
phone lines as a VT100 terminal bad things start to happen.

My emacs start-up used to contain the following:

(setq-default display-time-day-and-date t)
(display-time)

whenever I used emacs with the above, when I exited emacs my stty
setting would be completely messed up.  Echo would be turned off, CR
would not work for newline, etc.

Also, from time to time I would get the error:

        Fatal Error(1)

What is this error?  It seemed to be related to the above problem and only
occured on VT100's.  It often seemd to happen when a BELL character was sent.
For a time, everytime I hit ^G I would get Fatal Error(1).

Any ideas?  Pointers?
