getpass causes fprintf(stderr... not to be flushed

[Darren Stalder]

In one program I am working on, I needed to used getpass.  I was
getting very frustrated since my error messages were printing out in
the wrong places.

After I used getpass, if the password was too short then I used
fprintf(stderr, ...) to print out a message.  Unfortunately, another
call to getpass and then an fprintf were needed to printout that
message.  The message from the latest fprintf just sat out there in
stderr somewhere.  I tried fflush(stderr) but this didnt work.

Could anyone help me?  I am using ultrix V2.2.  Please use e-mail
since I rarely read comp.lang.c.
