termios.h says there are 17 characters (0..16) in the c_cc buffer. If I print them all out (here I've run it three times), it seems like 4 characters change their value between calls: 8 (VSTART) 9 (VSTOP) 10 (VSUSP) 16 (VEOL2)

I'll upload this program as termio2.c.

Finally the equivalent function from termios, namely tcgetattr, seems to give the right results, consistently over calls:

I'll upload this as termio3.c
