Your default stty settings are determined by your tty. In other
words, the kernel. You can change them at any time. For example,
from my .bashrc:
if (tty -s); then
export TERM=${TERM:-Eterm}
export TERMINFO=$HOME/.terminfo
export TTY=`tty`
stty -ixon -ixoff erase ^H kill ^U susp ^Z intr ^C stop ^@ start ^@
#eval `resize`
fi

man terminfo

Because some people prefer to use Eterm with TERM=xterm or TERM=linux.
