I think I've figured out your problem:

        xasprintf(&tmp, "exec %s", proxy_command);

This is done to avoid a lingering shell for the life of the connection,
while still allowing shell expansion of environment variables, etc. If
you proxy command requires other shell features then you'll need to
provide one explicitly.
