Greetings!

I have MacPerl 5.6.1b2 installed on MacOS 9.2.1 and have just noticed 
that `stty` no longer seems to be behaving itself.  Specifically, echoing 
does NOT seem to get turned off in raw mode.  Can anyone else confirm 
this?

--test-case--
print "Password: ";
$pass = '';
`stty -raw`;
while (($char = getc()) ne "\n")
{
  if ($char =~ /[\w\b]/) { $pass .= $char; }
}
`stty -sane`;
print "** $pass **\n";
--end-test-case--

BTW Chris, the web installer worked fine - bewdiful in fact.

Henry.
