fix tty problem et al
internals/internals.texi: Add section on correctly merging a branch back into the trunk.
console-tty.c, eval.c, event-unixoid.c, file-coding.c, file-coding.h, lisp.h, print.c, sysdep.c: Fix data corruption error in print.c from print_depth becoming
negative. Borrow primitives internal_bind_int,
internal_bind_lisp_object from my stderr-proc ws, soon to be
integrated; use them to properly bind print_depth et al.
First fix for TTY problem. The basic problem is I switched things
so that the TTY I/O is filtered through a coding system, for the
support of kterm and such, that speak JIS or similar
encodings. (#### I ***swear*** I had this working way back in
19.12.) Anyway, this introduced buffering issues, in which instead
of one char being read, it tried to read 1024 chars. I tried
setting the stdin descriptor non-blocking, but it doesn't appear
to work on Cygwin. (#### Andy, do you know anything about this?)
So I fixed it elsewhere. If you get weirdness on the TTY, look in
console-tty.c and see how it gets the coding system; maybe there's
a way to change it (and if not, there should be!).
Also fix warning in sysdep.c.

| 0 | 1 If you think you may have found a bug in XEmacs, please |
| 2 read the Bugs section of the XEmacs manual for advice on | |
| 3 (1) how to tell when to report a bug, and | |
| 4 (2) how to write a useful bug report and what information | |
| 5 it needs to have. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 There are three ways to read the Bugs section. | |
| 8 | |
| 9 (1) In a printed copy of the XEmacs manual. | |
| 10 | |
| 11 (2) With Info. Start XEmacs, do C-h i to enter Info, | |
| 12 then m XEmacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET | |
| 13 to get to the section on bugs. Or use standalone Info in | |
| 14 a like manner. (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution, | |
| 15 not part of the XEmacs distribution.) | |
| 16 | |
| 17 (3) By hand. Do | |
| 18 cat info/xemacs* | more "+/^File: xemacs.info, Node: Bugs," | |
| 19 | |

| 21 Part II of the XEmacs FAQ, available in a manner similar to the above, | |
| 22 or via the world wide web, contains extensive information on how to | |
| 23 track down and report bugs. | |
