I'd say that setting up a pty "should" (in the RFC sense) include setting 
a few things to decent values, like the baud rate.  So yes, sshd should 
do this.

Login itself doesn't (usually) do this, because it gets called on a tty
that is already set up, for example by "getty" on serial lines/console.
