--- Comment #2 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
Yes, it is intended behaviour and follows the option resolution
ordering mentioned at the start of the ssh_config man page.

It's not really friendly unfortunately and that's a consequence of the
mistake I made when originally implementing SendEnv of allowing
multiple SendEnv directives to concatenate results. It's too late to
fix this without causing widespread incompatibility though.

As far as achieving what you want to do, putting this in your
~/.ssh/config should do the trick:

Match final
   SendEnv -whatever

Unfortunately there's no nice way to do this on the command-line
