Robert recently changed bzr so that ssh is run in a separate process
group, with the goal of protecting it from being abruptly terminated by
^C (and therefore preventing us from cleaning up before closing the
connection.)

This may well be a consequence of that - being in a new pgrp likely
prevents ssh setting the terminal mode.

I'm not sure which is the lesser evil... perhaps we should keep the old
behaviour?
