Ah, then you missed my argument.

ECHOPRT should be removed unconditionally.  It is not Posix and is only
useful on hard-copy terminals, which are non-existent these days.

It's still defined and documented, and I wouldn't rule
out the possibility of some terminal supporting it (there
could be people running Chicken on all kinds of crazy
ancient hardware for all I know).

When the macro itself is removed from either Linux
or BSD I'll remove it from the egg.
