Yes I 100% agree its a IOS bug. It had something to do with the way it ended a ssh session.

That was one reason we got rid of cisco at our edges and use juniper which has config backup built into JunOS (via 
ssh/FTP)

Rancid is known to crash cisco devices doing config backups. I've seen it on 7200/7500 routers multiple times

I don't doubt it,  but since RANCID only uses show commands;   I would suspect that any similar tool that uses 
similar show commands,  could expose the same issue   ----   which is  obviously a router  CLI bug not a RANCID bug.
