entering 'top' in remote forwarded ssh connection will terminate original ssh connection

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. set up a remote forward 22222:destinationhost:22 (destinationhost must
be reachable directly from your phone, the original intention was to make
an ssh tunnel to the ssh server running on my phone, but it's not necessary
to have an ssh server on your phone to reproduce this)
2. on remote host, ssh -p 22222 user@destinationhost
3. type 'ls<return>', which works
4. type 'top<return>', which disconnects the connection to the original
hosts in connectbot

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected: top screen

instead:
Connection to localhost closed by remote host.
Connection to localhost closed.

What version of the product are you using (you can see this by using Menu
-> About in the Host List)?
r434

What type of system are you trying to connect to?
linux

If you are able to connect, what is the output of "echo $TERM", "uname -a",
and any other relevant information on the host?
screen-256color
Linux destinationhost 2.6.22.19-0.4-default #1 SMP 2009-08-14 02:09:16
+0200 x86_64 x86_
64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

I have a backtrace. The "WIN DEATH" start as soon as I enter top:

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Compression was enabled on that host.

There's no disconnect if I disable compression.
