This was what I'd planned to do in the past but never got around to.  A
first step would be to make a new thread for each terminal and arrange
for the terminal's file descriptor to be thread-locked.  This didn't
seem very hard.  Once that's done I guess higher-level problems could be
looked into; I don't really know this area well though.
