[R] Rterm.exe stops responding to keyboard input

I've been trying to use Rterm.exe, mainly because of Rgui.exe's lack of
support for incremental history searching. But on my system (Win XP, SP3),
it (rterm from R-2.8.1) frequently just stops responding to keyboard input.
This happens often (enough to make it unusable), and generally after a
switch to another window. It doesn't seem to hang exactly, as if I leave it
a while (minutes) it sometimes starts responding again. It isn't using any
CPU to speak of whilst being mute.

Anyone else know of this?
