I am just brought up ssh 2.0.12 as well (was previously running 2.0.11).
I'm experiencing the same problem except on the ssh client side - when
I try to ssh from my Solaris X86 v2.6 to host.domain.com where
host.domain.com resolves to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd, doing a "netstat -an | grep 22"
shows a SYN_SENT to ddd.ccc.bbb.aaa.22 instead of aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.22.
The CHANGES file states there were some mods in this particular area
specifically related to Solaris. On one of our Sparc's running 2.6,
2.0.12 works great. The problem only seems to appear on Solaris for Intel.
Our workaround is to "ssh aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd" or to use 2.0.11.
