Will this work if the last (and only) char written in raw
mode appear to be \0 (__DISABLED_CHAR)?

That would have triggered an EOF in older kernels so not a
regression.
I mean the case when icanon is enabled _after_ the
\0 was written. In an unpatched kernel it will not result
in an EOL mark, so I don't expect it to trigger EOF.

Right you are, Stas.
I found some other problems as well, so v4 coming.
