--- Comment #2 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
Well, yes. ProxyCommands require stdin/stdout for SSH traffic only and
anything else that appears there is likely to break the connection. So
ProxyCommands should only ever output to stderr. This is not a bug,
it's the way ProxyCommands work.

Also, from the looks of what you're trying to do, you'd probably be
better off with a LocalCommand instead of ProxyCommand. LocalCommand is
not subject to the same restrictions.
