>Description:
When using "telnet -x -8 host", "Last login" line is shifted.
>How-To-Repeat:
"telnet -x -8 somewhere"
>Fix:
The problem is that OPOST terminal mode is set before "done.\n" was
printed.
OPOST is set by TerminalNewMode() function (telnet.c:2342)
and printf("done.\n") is called later on. (telnet.c:2352)
Clearly, this piece of the code should be re-worked.
