i've only noticed it on serial lines.  it certainly doesn't happen on root
ssh logins.  i don't use telnet, and the machine is at a remote location
so i don't know if it happens on the console -- i built it by logging in
at the console, of course :-), and i don't remember it happening then.

i should test whether it is specific to non-root logins as well.  ssh as a
normal user rather than as root.
