Summary: 

I had the same problem of DOS echoing ^C on Ctrl-Break even tho I'd
reassigned the break handler vector.  The solution is to use the
ROM BIOS calls for the kayboard rather than DOS calls.

Using the ROM BIOS keyboard calls gets around the ^C echo and bypasses any
key redefinitions in ANSI.SYS.  Key redefinitions by other programs such as
Poly Windows, FANSI-Concole, etc. may still be effective.
