Well, sort of -- yes. But thanks for chiming in anyway.

At least in case of cpu(1) the magic is a bit perverse and quite
unlike the rest of the system. The way notes are managed make 
a local end of a cpu(1) jump through considerable hoops in order
for the notes to be properly delivered. That was a sad discovery.

Another discovery was that devcons.c could have made DEL work
but decided not to :-(

Thanks,
Roman.
