            Bug ID: 247464

Patches to the kernel, stty utility, and corresponding man pages

Fixes bug #220009. Both GNU/Linux and macOS have support for the removal of
UTF-8 multibyte letters when IUTF8 Input Mode is set through stty(1). Some
userspace software also assumes that this flag is available on the target
platform.

The patch adds basic support for such an Input Mode.
It doesn't make combining letters work, nor does it fix problems with line
width when there are multibyte letters in the line; these fixes would take
quite many changes. Nonetheless, it improves things a bit. :)
