I cannot reproduce it on Mac OS X pasting into Mac OS X Terminal. I can
reproduce it using xterm (so far only a remote xterm running on a REHL6
system, but I've just started looking). It looks like a file around 6.6K
(250 lines of what you sent, decoded) is enough to reproduce it. The
weird thing is that when you run this using strace, the characters that
are missing in the output are not shown as being made available to read(2).
read never reads them.
As I said, I've just started to look again, so I will keep on.
