I think you're on to something there. The Keychain interactions do 
sometimes pop up dialog boxes on the console. I don't quite remember what 
is supposed to happen when you're coming in remotely. Maybe it is silently 
disabling the Keychain code and it should be a little less silent.

There is an alpine-info mailing list similar to the pine-info list that 
may be a better target for alpine questions at
