OK, this code is no longer in Emacs. It was removed sometime in the life
of Emacs 24:
commit 2b0a91e78f83fb446cc38efb99399e83ad2cded3
Author: Stefan Monnier <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca>

Try to solve the problem of spurious EOF chars in long lines of text
sent to interactive subprocesses.
* sysdep.c (child_setup_tty): Do not enable ICANON any more.
(system_process_attributes): Remove unused var `ttotal'.
* process.c (send_process): Don't bother breaking long line with EOF
chars when talking to ttys any more.
(wait_reading_process_output): Output a warning when called in such
a way that it could block without being interruptible.
So I believe we can close this bug.
