After a bit of debugging, the cause seems to be that expect uses
Tcl_GetsObj to read from stdin, and treats a -1 return value as an
error. However, Tcl_GetsObj can also return -1 to indicate that input
was blocked, i.e. it didn't manage to read a complete line -- expect
didn't handle this case.
This patch seems to fix the problem:
