Subject:   more strange problem with broken pipes and ssh

OK, here is another strange problem with SSH and pipes.  When connecting 
via some means other than ssh, the commands

grep reject /var/log/maillog | less

displays data as expected.  However, when connected via ssh, hitting q to 
exit from less, I get a whole mess of

grep: writing output: Broken pipe
grep: writing output: Broken pipe
grep: writing output: Broken pipe
grep: writing output: Broken pipe

This is with stable as of today and the problem showed up since the last 
ssh commits.  The amount of broken pipes seems to scale with the amount of 
data less has, and it seems you need at least more than a screen full.
