Probably a "feature" for the MRV terminal server.
I wonder if any other terminal servers use this sequence.

That's a Telnet IAC-Break sequence.  I suspect the fact it works over 
SSH at all is a coincidence.

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
