--- Comment #5 from Jakub Jelen <jjelen at redhat.com> ---
Actually we had to use one-line version of this patch, because some
other shells (tcsh) do not support multi-line arguments well. The
readability is not better, but we achieved more portability.

We carry in Fedora this patch:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/openssh.git/tree/openssh-6.8p1-fix-ssh-copy-id-on-non-sh-shell.patch

Upstream doesn't seem to be interested in fixing this so at least for
the others who will encounter such problems and who would like to fix.
