Thanks.  Indeed, there *is* a connection, stuck in CLOSEWAIT state.

Knowing what to look for, I can see it with "show tcp" as well, and
can clear it with "clear tcp tcb...".

I'm not sure whether it actually helped anything - now the session is
in "CLOSED" state, the VTY is still stuck, and the TCP session refuses
to "really" go away... :-(

But thanks for the explanation :-)
