           Summary: persistent mux master should chdir away from the
                    current directory
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.8p2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ssh
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: Bert.Wesarg at googlemail.com


The persistent mux master keeps the same pwd where the initial call to
ssh/scp happen. This is bad because this may be a mountpoint from an
USB stick or sshfs, which can't be unmounted since than.

There are three possible proposals where to change into:

* the directory where the mux socket is in
* the users home directory
* the directory where the UserKnownHostsFile file is in
