 each "load" line is an enter press.

 As soon as I get this the app becomes totaly useless, I can't control-z or
 control-c it, I have to kill the term.
 
 VNC (on the password prompt) and other random apps do this too, but you
 get the idea, I just rebuild/installed world from an cvsup from about 30
 minutes ago, this has been going on for over a week (I cvsup every day).
 
 Any ideas?

I too have encountered the same symptoms.  I have no idea why this started 
happening, but I have found a couple ways around it.  First, two Control-Ds 
will act as a Return if you find the status lines appearing.  Second, the
stty command will fix it totally.  I use `stty status ^T' to remap the status 
command to Control-T rather than Control-J (the ^T is a carat, T):

  [2 ^D's here]
  akira:/home/bhlewis [101]#exit
  exit

Damn, that works like a charm, but I wonder what is causing this to begin
with.

 I hope this helps,

Yeah, good work around thanks :)
