This just came across the ssh list...I've deleted the patch for brievity
(original length was some 2900 lines).

> Included in this message is a patch that fixes this. It also makes the
> client print an error message, if remote port forwarding fails. Also,
> the configure script is a bit revised. It should atleast compile at
> HP-UX 9.x now (the "/usr/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols: vsnprintf
> (code)" bug should be fixed).

> This patch works with ssh-2.0.11, atleast.

> The patch can also be found in http://www.ssh.fi/sshprotocols2/ in a

>
> Installing the patch is simple. Go to the sources directory
> (~/src/ssh-2.0.11/ , or whatever) and give this command
> % patch -p1 -l ~/patches/patch-ssh-2.0.11
> (the filename depends on where you save it, and with what name)
> Then run configure, make and make install as usual. Restart any
> sshd2-daemons currently running.
