3.0 had some bugs in telnet negotiation (sub channel stuff).  I don't
know that it had other issues.   It didn't have many unit tests before
the current 2.7/3.1 trunks so I can't say much more, definitively.
The non-negotiation tests did pass on 3.1 trunk, IIRC.

If you can reproduce the behavior in a testable snippet please submit
a bug and assign it to me on bugs.python.org (jackdied on the bug
tracker).
