minicom

[Achim Gratz]

I've compiled minicom for Cygwin for my own use.  I'm intending to
package it, but there is a bug that stumps my ability to debug: Opening
the help screen makes minicom exit, which kind of defeats the purpose.
If you press any key before the help screen is fully open, minicom
continues to run and even executes any function associated with that key
(if not, the key gets sent to the serial line).  It only happens with
the help screen.  The exit screen toggles between the two choices all by
itself, but you can still use it when pressing enter at the right time.
I've tried to run an strace, but I see no error.  It looks like some
synchronisation inside minicom doesn't work correctly, but I don't know
where to look.
