Many thanks for the heads up, much appreciated.

Unfortunately on the ppc machine Crtl-G is not being interpreted (but
Ctrl-C is):

$ erl -sname a -setcookie 1
Eshell V6.4.1.7  (abort with ^G)
(a@REDACTED)1> ^G
(a@REDACTED)1> ^C
BREAK: (a)bort (c)ontinue (p)roc info (i)nfo (l)oaded
       (v)ersion (k)ill (D)b-tables (d)istribution

So I guess I'll need to get to the bottom of this symptom first.

For background context, the OTP 17.5.6.10 for ppc64 was cross compiled
and statically linked against libncurses - potentially the statically
linked libncurses was not packaged correctly which leads to terminal
character issues?
