Cliff,

You're not really here anymore so I don't expect a reply, but what exactly
is this bug in ssh?  I haven't read about it on BugTraq or any other list,
you don't seem to have submitted a PR about it, Googling for 'Cliff
Sarginson ssh' doesn't turn up anything particularly illuminating (granted
I didn't read every hit in detail).

I can recall two security problems with OpenSSH in the last year or so;
both were widely reported and fixed quickly.

	Scott
