Any News on cut-and-paste bug?

[Hart Larry]

Quite some months ago Bill Acker suggested I login as an
ssh localhost
on each console where I would want to cut-and-paste.  Well, actually unless 
there were a way for this anoyance to just ruin 1 tty instead of freeze an 
entire machine?  I also suppose having a script on bootup log us in a 
localhost.
This bug just comes so suddenly, no warning--and-best as we can tell all 
activity stops.
I realize-and-appreciate that we have an active community, many who are 
knowledgeable, ETC.  But it almost seems Speakup may join YASR as having gotten 
at a certain level-and-thats it.
I've been on this list since 2003, but now for `quite some time I still cannot 
move up past 2.632 as I would have no DecTalk speech.  I think John Heim wrote 
a patch to fix this, but I have no idea what steps will install?
And lastly, still about the DecTalk, if we can ever produce a log showing 
commands which Speakup is sending, James says he can assist.
Thanks so much in advance
