Yep, this is the first thing to go looking for.

I had a similar problem on a machine where some users used zsh.
I forget which version, but a < latest zsh would read eof, then go
re-try forever.  This esp happend if the telnet it was running under
died.

Wading though the code of some of these layer upon layer progs is a
bitch, so make sure you compiled with -g and kill -6 it, you'll
probably find it was in a read().
