This isn't the libcompat that everything is looking for.  The libcompat
everything is looking for is pretty much obsolete.

stty/gtty are macros.  They are no longer the correct mechanism for setting/
getting tty modes.

I made a fake libcompat (it's on ref.tfs.com) for the compilation of the
games.  This was a full package (including stty/gtty wrapper functions)
and thus inapropriate for a patch.  There were also a couple other functions
omitted from the C library.
