This is happening because your iocsh is waiting for keyboard characters
inside GNU readline, which has modified the terminal settings to allow
it to manage the user experience. I assume you must be executing the
epicsExit(0) routine in some other thread, and unfortunately this is
currently the result of killing the iocsh thread like that.
I can think of a few ways around the problem, at least one of which we
ought to implement, but it would be simplest for you to start the IOC
from a script which runs 'stty sane' immediately after the IOC exits.
That command should be sufficient and is a little less severe than a
full terminal reset.
