We already found the problem when we discussed the issue
privately with Tribhuvan. My original patch has a bug which
is really critical apparently only on Solaris.

I misunderstood the xterm control sequence specification and
thought that the string termination sequence is not ESC + \x9c, but
only \x9c.

Tribhuvan's version is correct.

But the delay problem still remains.

It's quite interesting that the delay does not occur on my
machine.

I think the problem may be in the code that implements the read()
function. Maybe some kind of an internal buffer wants to read more
than one character and also more characters than the title
response consists of, and therefore the delay occurs when the read()
functions blocks waiting for more characters.
