 One of the stty control character setting commands is `flush'.
Setting this on linux (which doesn't appear to support this
functionality) sets the VDISCARD terminal control character.  This
setting is never read from.

 This command is also not documented anywhere.

Is the problem still there and do you still think that something
should be done about it?  If so, can you provide a patch?
