I have still been testing this kernel. Most things work as expected, but
the pasting functionality for Fenrir's clipboard is broken. After
checking into the problem, it seems that tiocsti is disabled, and that
is causing the problem. Was that something done in this test kernel
only, or will that be the default for all new Arch kernels? If it is the
default, is there a way to turn it back on? I tried the following:

[storm@...llnir ~] $ sudo sysctl dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=1
sysctl: setting key "dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti": Invalid argument

Thanks,
Storm
