Strange.  Can you include something like "stty -echo" in root's shell
init files, then try Tramp again?

Another useful thing to do would be to open a new buffer and to type
the following in it (line break for email only):

    M-: (start-process "ssh-root" (current-buffer)
                       "ssh" "address@hidden") RET

Then do something similar for the user ianb in another buffer and
send me (or the mailing list) both buffers.  Perhaps you could attach
them as an application/octet-stream attachment to avoid mangling of
line endings and other control chars.
