ISO/IEC 9945-1: 1990 (IEEE Std 1003.1-1990 Information Technology -
POSIX), page 144 lines 623-625:
]The zero baud rate, B0, is used to terminate the connection. If B0 is
]specified as the output baud rate when tcsetattr() is called, the
]modem control lines shall no longer be asserted. Normally, this will
