Lots of cleanups here, including a couple fixes for bugs noticed by
Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@tomgilbert.freeserve.co.uk> and Martin Tyler
<martin@boo.org>. Also removed the requirement of glibc 2.1 for using
SVR4-style pty's (/dev/pts/*) under Linux.

Auto mode has been fixed to work with the newest E. If you don't have
the newest E, it won't work. So don't bug me about it; just upgrade.
Your version of E must be dated October 7th or later, or all bets are
off.
I also cleaned up some stuff to save lots of unnecessary redraws and
(if you're in auto mode) E IPC transactions.
A bug in the value set for $IFS was also fixed. Thanks to Kimball
Thurston <kimball@sgrail.com> for pointing out my oversight.
Furthermore, I added a parameter to the --enable-multi-charset option
for configure. You can now specify =utf-8 to get UTF-8 fonts for the
multi-byte mode stuff. If you pass =kanji (or no value at all), you
will still get the old Kanji fonts. If you use multi-byte Eterm and
have a set of fonts for other setups (Big 5, Cyrillic, etc.), please
let me know and I'll add a parameter for those too.
