The string "Use Terminal.answerback to set ..." repeatedly sent to host

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The string "Use Terminal.answerback to set ..." is repeatedly sent to the
host's command line.  I then get "Use: command not found".

On two machines (one Linux, the other NetBSD), this only happened if the
term type was screen (changing it to VT100 or xterm resolved the problem).
   On another Linux system however, it happens regardless of term settings
or even if I connect to one machine and then ssh into the other.

I've tried removing anything potentially wonky from the .bash* files
(including setting my elaborate PS1 to simply "> ").

I don't get this from putty or any of the various Linux terminal emulators,
so that makes me think the issue isn't with my .bash* files.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
V1.2 (r 109 2008.11.03) on a T-Mobile G1

Did you check the Post-login automation setting for the hosts?

That's what happens when the host sends character 0x05 (ENQ) to the terminal. It
should send back the current terminal emulation mode in our case most likely. 
I'll
submit a change with my next check-in.

I changed it to send back the current emulation mode which is normally the right
thing. In r129
