[BusyBox] "more" problem (with telnetd)

"more" works ok in normal usage; however, if you:
- compile vodz telnetd in busybox
- access the busybox system from over the network
- do "more somefile"

then you cannot escape from "more" since <spacebar> <q> ... are not
interpreted as commands but printed on the screen.

If you "telnet localhost" then you have to press keys twice to get the
desired effect.

I think this is a busybox "more" problem since I tried with another
standalone "more" and it does not exhibit this behavior.
tried with/without use_termios.

OTOH, using a standalone inetd+rlogin I can access the busybox system over
the network and busybox "more" is ok.

I start telnetd as "telnetd -l /bin/login"

Thanks
