This is stupid, but ... it seems to be related to the window size !!!
	3.02/07 gets "broken" if the window has more than 43 lines (80 chars)
	3.03/09 gets "broken" if the window has more than 47 lines (80 chars)
If the line width is longer than 80 chars, the "allowed" number of lines
decreases !!!
The strange thing is ... the window is always an "rxvt" running locally
on a RH6.2 :
	rxvt -bg White -fg Black -sl 1000 -T MyRH71 -n MyRH71 -e rlogin -8 -l $LOGNAME MyRH71 &
then on the remote RH7.1 machine is just the "-bash" running ...

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Jacek.
