Well, your solution worked :) At least as far as fixing the term issue. However, a side effect is that the processes continue running on the servers after the SSH connection is killed (arrrrgh). So sorta back to square one.

I have had some luck with the following line, but it feels like a cheesy way (and not 100%) to fix the issue. Before the print and in various places:

system('stty sane');

So confirmed that it's definitely a term settings issue. Over 95% of the time there are no print issues. However, now trying to pipe the output into any other tool crashes the program (leaving tons of threads running and dormant processes). Other users will certainly pipe the output so that's a problem. Maybe I need to pass Perl code to the servers like you were saying (to kill the processes once SSH is killed). This way I don't need to use that buggy -tt SSH option.
