Public bug reported:

Source package: openssh_5.1p1.orig.tar.gz + openssh_5.1p1-5ubuntu1.diff.gz
Ubuntu Release: Jaunty
Package Version: openssh-server_5.1p1-5ubuntu1

When using OpenSSH's ForceCommand sshd_config directive to launch its 
internal-sftp, it is not possible to pass arguments to the latter. Example:
This fails (sshd tries to invoke it as if it were an application):
> ForceCommand internal-sftp -l INFO
This works:
> ForceCommand internal-sftp

This bug has already been fixed in the upstream version of OpenSSH, see:
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1527 and
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-
bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/ssh/session.c.diff?r1=1.241;r2=1.242;f=h

I consider this bug as of pretty low priority since it only matters for
ppl who use ForceCommand + the internal-sftp + care about logging
(transfer) actions made by clients.

I have compiled a fixed version (attached patch applied) of OpenSSH in
my PPA, just in case anyone would like to use that feature, too.
