Michael, you right, it IS nasty.  It's also not a bug in VT100.
 
I use the COMM terminal program version 1.34, and I have the same problem
whilst using both DropShadow and Comm together.  It seems that DropShadows
uses something in the serial.device, and that this conflicts with any terminal
program using the device.  (It's happemed to me with other terminals as well
as Comm).
