[Bug 407175] [NEW] log out fails

[infamous]

Public bug reported:

I am running openssh server on my server which is running Ubuntu 9.04.
I am running openssh client on my laptop running Ubuntu 8.10.  I connect
to my router using a wireless G WAP encryption.

I use my laptop to connect to my server using ssh -X, with no key just a
password.  When I am done and try to logout, the logout process won't
complete.  I  dont get a message, just a blinking cursor.  I use
control+D to log out.  I can't control+C out of it.  I use a stjerm
terminal.  The ssh lists as sleeping in the process tree.  I can force a
logout by shutting down the server, and then my client comes back to
life, with a connection closed by remote host message.  My server hangs
on restart every time, when I am restarting while still connected to my
laptop.  I have to shut the power of by hand.  It does not normally
freeze after issuing the restart, only if I try to restart when still
connected, although the connection is terminated before the restart
command is sent by the system.

This bug only appears after streaming certain processes over the
network.  Try runnig epiphany remotely, it causes this bug every time
for me, but only if I close the epiphany by clicking the red X in the
UI.   If I control+C out of epiphany from the terminal, I can then
logout of ssh fine.

Client version is 1:5.1p1-3Ubuntu
Sever version is  1:51p1-5Ubuntu

I can reproduce this bug if necessary and supply files and memory maps
and anythign else needed if someone wants them.  My guess is that there
are processes still running and ssh is waiting for them to complete.  So
may be its not technically a ssh bug but it certainly manifests itself
as one.
