We had the same problem here (our terminal concentrator eats ^s and ^q), so
most people unbind ^s and ^q and rebind their functions to other keys in
their .emacs_pro files. The default bindings within emacs itself were left
alone. As problems were noticed in system mlisp packages, we rebound things
there (so everybody doesn't have to get their own copy and change the
bindings). I haven't heard any complaints since we got the last ^s out of
rmail. This is with a Gosling emacs; we haven't gotten around to porting
GNUmacs to the Gould machines yet, so I don't know if we can get away with
the same sort of thing, but I would think we could.
