Hm, I had no debugging enabled, but I think a silent hang in

        pty_write()
          tty_flip_buffer_push()
            flush_to_ldisc()

can cause the receiving side

        tty_read()
          n_tty_read()

to wait forever for updates.  I haven't looked closely.  It seems to
be gone with your latest master in any case.
