Kannel on AIX

[Vincent CHAVANIS]

Yeah, i'm also suprised !!!
(X25 is dead, long live TCP/IP ! )=)

The EMI patch looks good but, we need to check if everything goes fine 
in changing speed.


<!--

     ret = tcsetattr(fd, TCSANOW, &tios);
     if (ret == -1) {
         error(errno, "EMI[X25]: at_dial: fail to set termios attribute");
     }

-->
