problems with grass 4.0 main shell driver and g.help for SGI

[Alan Grant Finlay]

Has anyone had problems similar to the following after compiling grass 4.0
for silicon graphics iris (4d) workstations running under NeWS?

1) The grass driver program automatically calls g.help .

2) g.help misbehaves.  It will only accept <line-feed> to move the selection
   down instead of <return>.  After exit it leaves an empty window which
   ignores all keyboard input except a control-C.  All control-C does is
   display a shell prompt and doesn't break out of the loop.  A we have
   tried implementing a suggestion to move the Get_old_tty() call in menu.c
   and this worked for a while but now after a full recompilation of grass
   the problem has come back again.  I have tried using the original menu.c
   and it didn't change anything.

Can anyone explain how the main driver shell GIS.sh works, I want
to try and understand why it is automatically calling g.help.
