At Fortune we went a little further than Geoff at Callan. We bit the
bullet and add an IOCTL for copying the current modes to the default
(after close) modes, so you can say "stty 1200 savemodes >/dev/tty05",
for example. Modes are copied from the defaults on each "first open",
so 'hupcls' doesn't wipe the default speed.

This makes non-login ports (printers, comm lines) VERY much easier
to deal with.
