Same here.

I noticed that in El Capitan system-wide ssh configuration files are now
in /etc/ssh.

Xquartz doesn't seem to have noticed this. It creates a file /etc/sshd_config containing the 2 lines

# XAuthLocation added by XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org)
XAuthLocation /opt/X11/bin/xauth

This file is no longer used, so the XAuthLocation line is forgotten.
Add it to /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and X11 forwarding will work (it did for me, anyway).

I enabled X11forwarding and included


# XAuthLocation added by XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org
<http://xquartz.macosforge.org/>)
Host *
    XAuthLocation /opt/X11/bin/xauth

in the ssh_config and sshd_config files in /etc/ssh.

Has anybody faced this issue with El Capitan and found a solution to it?

Adding it to sshd_config worked for me, without the Host * line though, which seems to be a ssh_config thing.
