Help with Emacs 22.2.1 using TRAMP and PuTTY/plink

User-agent: G2/1.0

Emacs version 22.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-03-27 on RELEASE

running on Windows XP
Connecting to a Solaris Unix host using PuTTY 0.60 plink with a pagent
running with suitable keys loaded.

I have updated windows PATH to include the PuTTY install directory so
Tramp can find it.

plink, by itself will quite happily connect.

I connect, but then it does not find the command line prompt unless I
change 'Tramp rsh end of line' in Customize->Files->Tramp to '\r'

The problem with this is that tramp puts a \r on the end of every
input line, which is not what I want.

Then, when tramp tries to execute
  exec env 'ENV=' 'PROMPT_COMMAND=' 'PS1=$ ' /bin/sh
it tacks a \n on the end, which is interpreted as a character in the /
bin/sh filename, which makes the program /bin/sh<newline> not found,
causing termination of the shell and subsequent termination of plink
and finally process 'exit' within emacs.

If I don't set the  'Tramp rsh end of line', then tramp does not find
the initial login prompt, which is returned (albeit a rather long one
as I update my window title via the prompt string)

I also tried setting it to '\n'

I have tweaked the debug output to show the process info...

Debug output is as follows (with control chars replaced by thier
visible equivilents):-

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
