I just ran into this issue when sshing to a server with GSSAPIAuthentication

unusual and should be disabled by default since it may cause significant delays.

I'll be uploading openssh 1:10.4p1-5 shortly with GSSAPI auth disabled, and indeed compiled out; you now have to explicitly install the separate openssh-client-gssapi or openssh-server-gssapi package (as appropriate) to get it. I guess that doesn't entirely make this bug go away, but it should make it less relevant for most people.
