For what it's worth, I've seen the exact same problem when logging
into a freebsd system from an Archimedes.  I do *not* have the problem
when logging into a freebsd system from a VAX, or another freebsd
system, or an HP or a Sun running SunOS 4.1.3!  I'm still not saying
that there's no bug in the FreeBSD telnetd; there probably is, simply
that certain things seem to tickle it and some don't.  You might try
playing around with some of the telnet modes (line, char, etc) and
see if that affects the problem at all..
