I would not use the C stdio for this and instead directly use the POSIX
read/write. You have to set up the right Termios settings.  In case you
use RTEMS 4.11 I would use the new Termios device interface (see
rtems_termios_device_install()).

The code is intended to be platform independent, so I don't want to
change it if not really necessary.

will this work on non-POSIX targets at all?

Currently, we use this code under Linux.

This code switches stdin into non-blocking mode via the following sequence:

    tcgetattr(STDIN_FILENO, &oldt);
    oldf = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_GETFL, 0);

    newt = oldt;
    newt.c_lflag &= ~(ICANON | ECHO);
    newf = oldf | O_NONBLOCK;

    tcsetattr(STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &newt);
    fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_SETFL, newf);

Then it tries to read from the input via getchar().
I must admit this code is a little bit tricky, because it uses ungetc() for the implementation of a Windows kbhit() equivalent.

The interesting thing is, that newlib/libc/stdio/refill.c contains
some "#ifndef __CYGWIN__" which seem to fix the problem under Cygwin.

This Cygwin approach seems to be quite a hack. The current FreeBSD
variant of refill.c uses the default. How does this work on Linux?

I didn't checked the glibc code, but non-blocking getchar() works as expected.
