The fact that EXTPROC can be manually unset is by design. Quoting
from the original again:

stty.diff:
This file contains the changes needed for the stty(1) program
to report on the current status of the TS_EXTPROC bit. It also
allows the user to turn on/off the TS_EXTPROC bit. This is useful
because it allows the user to say "stty -extproc", and the
LINEMODE option will be automatically disabled, and saying "stty
extproc" will re-enable the LINEMODE option.

This option is not supported by gnu coreutils.

OK. It's in *BSD and Minix. Looks like I never wrote a patch for
coreutils for this last time around.

Wrote it, just never submitted it.
