I experienced the bug because my shell is configured to print the currently running command in the window title. When I ran a command longer than 256 characters, it looked like the command didn't run. It actually did run, but ssh.exe ate its output. Example: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Xterm-Title-5.html (but I'm not using zsh) I know this isn't a common configuration, but I still hope you'll fix it. Since cygwin just uses mailing lists instead of a real persistent bug tracker, I'm worried about the bug being forgotten forever if it's not fixed soon. Truncating the title to 256 WITH the final '\a' is a suboptimal but acceptable fix. A better idea might be: in non-legacy terminals, don't even switch from "normal" to "gettitle", just print everything as it arrives. I'm not subscribed to the mailing list so I'm manually sending this as a reply to my first email. Sorry for the mess.
