I made that substitution and added a
#define DEBUG 1
The resulting binary sometimes fails to return and I then have to
hit ctrl-c. I've tried it several times, and not seen any (repeating)
pattern in terms of when it works and when it fails.
Here's some typical output:
# grep TCSA ex_obsd_flush.c
status = tcsetattr(fd, TCSAFLUSH, &options);
# cc -Wall -o ex_obsd_flush ex_obsd_flush.c
# time ./ex_obsd_flush

# time ./ex_obsd_flush

Following this I had two more failures, one success, one failure and
one success in that order.
