It happens regardless of how you shutdown Boris; it might be some one else
who is closing Boris.

The problem is, that although the sshd daemon knows it is going down, and
it knows perfectly well who is connected, it doesn't disconnect the
clients before going down.
It shouldn't be the responsibility of the user to detect that the server
is going down and disconnect. Computers are made to automate things.
So, unless there is an option in the sshd configuration to change this
behavior, it is a bug or misfeature.
