There were some race conditions in the N_TTY line discipline which I recently fixed. Those changes are in linux-next. Can you test if this is reproducible on linux-next? Assuming I don't reproduce this on the laptop, the only other explanation I can think of right now is that ARCLinux is not properly handling signal-driven i/o (assuming the BusyBox /bin/sh uses SIGIO). Do you know if there is anything special about the way ARCLinux handle signals?
