   [timeout red herring]

   And with timeout removed completely:

Hmmm, interesting!  On my system, this blocks completely until i
type =E2=80=98C-c=E2=80=99, then it PASSes because the underlying =E2=80=98=
co=E2=80=99 DTRT.  So
it seems timeout has nothing to do w/ the root cause.  Good,
we're making progress.

   How does it detect the TTY?

It boils down to a call to =E2=80=98isatty (STDIN_FILENO)=E2=80=99 (see
src/rcsgen.c:193).

   It could be that it detects the
   TTY but it's not actually useable.

I suppose that "useable" means the =E2=80=98getc (in)=E2=80=99 (see
src/rcsgen.c:208) works.

   From the build environment:
   output of "which tty":
   /gnu/store/57xj5gcy1jbl9ai2lnrqnpr0dald9i65-coreutils-8.32/bin/tty

   output of "ls -la /dev/tt*":
   ls: cannot access '/dev/tt*': No such file or directory

No, you have to run that program; it prints out the tty:

 $ which tty
 /usr/bin/tty
 $ tty
 /dev/pts/6
 $ ls -l $(tty)
 crw--w---- 1 ttn tty 136, 6 ott 22 03:32 /dev/pts/6
