Today I tried to reproduce this with bash as default shell for root,
but I couldn't!  So, zsh is somehow connected to this behaviour.

My (currently) minimal test case is:

At this point it just hangs for minutes.

Strange: it doesn't hang every time, but about 30% of the time.
Even stranger: it doesn't happen with bash as login shell.
Uhm, interesting: it doesn't happen with the parameter "-x" to ssh.

Still grateful for any idea,
 Andy.
