I've look at it, and comparing with our Terminal application sources at:
http://cgit.haiku-os.org/haiku/tree/src/apps/terminal/Shell.cpp#n464
it seems we call setsid() before actually opening the tty.

I've moved the call before in qemacs and it just works.

I'm not sure if it's either our implementation which is broken or if
it's not supposed to be in this order and it's just Linux and others
which accept it anyway...

François.
