The problem is the "remote" side that's frozen. The "local" side can
be on any kernel version and it won't have any effect. The runs that I
did was for one good run with "strace -o t1.good rlogin ju" that has
the bad kernel and a second one with "strace -o t4.bad rlogin ju" that
just hang.

No. Was hoping that the traces would show where it hang for the good
and bad trace.

Sorry, forgot to send the good trace run for the patched remote side.
Here's attached. t5.good.

Thanks,
