Does this qualify as flow control problem?
I don't think so. It looks like he has encountered the fact that C-s
and C-q _typed by the user_ operate as commands that turn output off
and on. The solution is simply to turn off their effect (and I think
Emacs does that in sysdep.c, so why isn't it working?).
Flow control means the terminal generates those input characters to
regulate input. To avoid that problem, Emacs has to send more padding.
But that is what I think no modern terminal emulator will do.
