This same problem (and the solution) is mentioned in this email thread: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2008/04/21/msg001941.html
It looks like it was a bug in the ssh client. It's probably made worse by the unreliability of wifi (ie, I packet lost here or there). Ciao! -- I cannot connect to any server.
