SSH works well but scp/rsync hangs!!!!

Two machine M1 and M2

*** in M1
 scp file M2:/dir
 Although it shows the file 100% transferred but scp hangs, I have to
use ctrl c to quit.
 use -vvv options, I can get vvv.log as attachment.
It is very strange that scp only hangs when the size of file larger
than 1405B , if the size <=1405B, scp works well.
 the attachment diff.log is the difference of the two logs of strace
(to sshd and its forks (process A and process B is the replacement of
forks) )
 The former (s1.log) is the strace log when transferring 1405B file
and the later (s2.log) is for 1406B
PS. I can use ssh to login M2 successfully.
 *** In M2
scp file M1:/dir
it works well!

Any ideas?

The file size is suspiciously close to the default MTU .. any "odd" routers
along the way that may not like big packets?
