Thanks. This was also http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1203
and is fixed upstream in OpenSSH 4.4p1. I'll incorporate the fix in my
next upload, since I'm not currently planning to move to 4.4 until after
etch (but instead just backport security fixes).

I agree with Ben that this is a perfectly legitimate bug in the Debian
openssh source package.
