And recompile stuff like rlogin, ncurses and termcap to get them to work
right, also possibly stuff like tn3270.

And my sync card in async mode can do almost arbitary baud rates. At this
point I think sanity has to prevail.

Ted, Linux can either continue the 500 crazy bitpatterns for unrelated baud
rate game that POSIX didnt fix or fix it properly

Define a CBAUD value for "Other"

Add

struct termspeed
{
u32 ispeed;
u32 ospeed;
};

and ioctls for

TIOCGSPEED
TIOCSSPEED
