While upgrading my AT clone to Microport System V/AT 2.4, I ran into
a problem with Bell Tech's ICC device driver software.  The kernel link
was failing due to 'putchar' being undefined.  After snooping thru various
symbol tables I found a simple fix.  Compile the following function and
add it to /usr/linkkit/lib7:

putchar(c)
int c;
{
	return kdcputc(c);
}

The putchar function seems to have disappeared when the console driver
was modified for release 2.4.  The kdcputc function appears to be
functionally equivalent.
