            Bug ID: 2578
           Summary: -W should honor -4 and -b
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.2p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh

          Reporter: mh+openssh-bugzilla at zugschlus.de

Hi,

ssh -W should honor -4 and -b options given on the same command line.

In practice, ssh -4 -W host:port will use IPv6 if host has an AAAA and
an A record, and ssh -b valid.ipv4.address -W host:port will give
"address family not supported" error if host has an AAAA and an A
record.

Greetings
Marc
