Confirmed, this is:

and going to occur whenever the package is built on a buildd that is
primarily controlled by a serial console (eg. most of them! :-).
My proposal is to build with '--with-serial' with as standard to solve the
problem. This bug *severely* screws up people's machines, as keystrokes
get lost or corrupted and disappear from /dev/tty0.
John Lines: are you happy if I NMU up a patch via DELAYED? This bug has
been open for 9 months so far.
