Subject: Talk not working on 99pl2

I recently acquired the SLS 99pl2 release from tsx-11. Upon getting it
up and running I noticed that 'talk' seems broken. I attempted a talk
between my alt-F1 screen and mt alt-F2 screen. Worked great, but.....
I couldn't get out. Cntrl-C didn't do anything except put a ^C on
the screen. This is what I've always used to get out before, but not
now. I had to kill the process by opening a 3rd screen and logging
in as root. I checked the man pages thinking maybe the exit codes had
been changed, but it mentions nothing about getting out of talk.

Any suggestions?
