I've seen this before but it wasn't related to doing tftp. It was the telnet session itself that was hosed.
When you press the enter button, a Windows client normally sends CR+LF. When you press the enter button, a Unix client normally sends CR. I don't remember all of the details, but the LF seemed to give the Xyplex trouble and caused all sorts of weird things (the output would be hosed after pressing enter).
I seem to recall a command that was supposed to resolve this in the Xyplex. Use this link:

and look at the "set/def port x telnet newline y" and "set/def port x telnet newline filtering y" commands on pages 274 and 275.
But to be honest, I don't think I ever got those commands to work the correct way I needed them to, so I ended up always telnetting from a Unix client. Also, from a Windows client, if you press the enter button on the keypad (as opposed to the enter button on the main keyboard part), then the Windows client will only send a CR.
Good luck!
