Research direction

Start with the ssh command on Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 using code pages 936 and 437, and reproduce the crash after selecting an area and pressing Enter. Compare this with running ssh from another path after adding C:\Program Files\OpenSSH to PATH; done means the crash and related code-page behavior are isolated and reproducible.
