Connecting to a Foundry router fails:

More detail from an SSH packet log of a different session (same RomSShell version string; "Foundry BigIron16 running 2.3.0aT145"):

It would appear that RomSShell is having problems with the empty SSH_MSG_IGNORE that we send before each packet in CBC mode (since it's complaining after seeing the first of these). This is perfectly reasonable, since SSH_MSG_IGNORE packets are meant to contain strings, which need four length bytes at the start. As of r7236, PuTTY sends packets containing empty strings instead, which should help. cryptlib complains about this bug as well, probably returning CRYPT_ERROR_BADDATA and (in the next release) the message "Bad message payload length 0 for packet type 2".
