Bad tty modes when calling emacs from curses and CTRL/Z hits

I have a curses program that puts the TTY into cbreak mode, and I
sometimes do system("$EDITOR"). If the user does a CTRL/Z,
upon return the TTY modes are all screwed up. My guess is that
curses and emacs are playing dueling ioctl's. What should I
do? This happens on Sun3.5 and Ultrix2.1.
Thanks; replies to me will get summarized.
