I believe this is because of the way we're trying to set the X window
title. This patch should help temporarily:

--- cut here ---
diff --git a/lib/sup/buffer.rb b/lib/sup/buffer.rb
index fa1afe6..7f0ad81 100644

+    #print "\033]2;#{title}\07" if title
 
     Ncurses.mutex.lock unless opts[:sync] == false

Does anyone know what the correct approach is for determining whether to
set the title or not? Is it a matter of checking $TERM?
