I still don't get the point of including sys/termio.h. Python does not use the TCGETA macro itself at all. Python applications may, but they can't use the included sys/termio.h, since they are written in Python, not in C. To put the question the other way: If you remove the first chunk of the patch 4 (the change to pyport.h), will Python fail to compile on QNX? If so, what is the error message. Please also address my other remarks, in particular this one: Are you willing to support a QNX port for the coming years (say, 5 years)?
