Unfortunately Term::ReadLine (at least here with perl 5.8.8) does
not properly reset the terminal even when used in a test script
without FakeTerm.   I don't know anything about perl and couldn't
turn up any answers to this problem with Google, but maybe there
is still a better solution known.  It would sure be much nicer if
ReadLine just took care of this detail itself.
