Description
       This interface has been superseded by

       The  subroutine sets the state of the terminal associated with fd.  The
       subroutine retrieves the state of the terminal associated with fd.   To
       set the state of a terminal the call must have write permission.

       The  call  is  actually ``ioctl(fd, TIOCSETP, buf)'', while the call is
       ``ioctl(fd, TIOCGETP, buf)''.  See and for an explanation.

Return Values
       If the call is successful 0 is returned, otherwise -1 is	 returned  and
       the global variable errno contains the reason for the failure.
