Andi,

More information might help me narrow this down since I can't
reproduce this.

Is the ssh session remote?
Can you reproduce this on a local ssh session?
What version of emacs is this? Is it the nox flavor?
What distribution/version?
What platform?

In the 3.11 cycle? or could have started back on 3.9 or earlier?

Could you try to reproduce this on linux-next?

Would you please attach the full strace of emacs from this session?
