I am having a strange problem with xt5250 on only one of the 3 AS/400's
I routinely connect to.  

Any type of 'prompting' (F4, F21) from SEU, SDA, etc causes the terminal
to unlock (the busy X disappears) but the screen doesn't change and no
key, including system request, will break out of it.  I initially
thought it may have something to do with 24x80/27x132 switching but I
changed terminal types to an IBM-3179-2 (24x80) and it still occurs.

This only started recently.  I am using the stable release 0.16.5 in Red
Hat 9.  Any tips on debugging this one?
