Well, I didn't try every key but just trying a bunch of non-return keys
doesn't produce "input".

It is still happening within my login account, i.e. for "jeff", at this
time. The ksh package is 93s+20080202-1 in squeeze. I believe I created
a fresh "dummy" account for the bug report just to be sure my
environment was not the source of the bug. One idea is that there is
some strange interplay between the shell and the keyboard processing,
i.e. it may be in that, the latter, software. Which packages should I
give you info on there?
