I did some more debugging tonight, and see the problem now.  I'm kind of 
curious out the CE/SAN/NXOS types get around this...but the problem is, 
with no clear end of config marker to the show running-config, the 
WriteTerm function doesn't stop processing input until it's read all of 
it.  In WriteTerm, when

last if (/^$prompt/);

matches, the line matched has the exit command on it.  So when 
processing is handed back to inloop, there's nothing left for it to 
process other than the "Shared connection to ... closed." message from 
ssh.

Would it be an appropriate workaround for this to also set $clean_run = 1 
in the above if statement at the end of WriteTerm...or make a new if 
statment just for $devtype axos that sets both $found_end and $clean_run?
