--- Comment #1 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
Adding a PID token isn't very useful, because it will be different for
each ssh ControlMaster and so multiplexing client's won't be able to
connect to it unless the ControlPath is explicitly specified.

> there's currently no clean or reliable way to identify the PID of this process via the socket name

Sure there is:

$ ssh -F none -oControlPath=~/.ssh/ctl-djm at sv32:22 -O check blah
Master running (pid=29435)
