Package: ssh
Version: 1:4.3p2-8
Severity: normal
Using this commandline within a script with /dev/stdin redirected to
/dev/null, and trying to make sure that it never asks for passwords in
the case that the remove server has lost its NFS mounts and can't find
my key (I just want it to bail in that case):
ssh -T -D 1081 -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] waitforme
It tries to read from /dev/tty, locking up the entire window manager
as everything gets a SIGTTOU.

ssh takes 99% CPU, and everything else gets suspended. strace of the
ssh process reveals an endless loop of trying to read from the tty
(which I can't imagine even existing -- unless its trying to talk to
the tty that startx ran off), getting SIGTTOU, and trying again:
