SSH1 tunneling problems.

As I regularly websurf over a SSH tunnel, I've seen this exact problem
occur *many many* times, and for many OpenSSH versions prior to
2.3.0. In fact, it has occurred ever since I switched from the
original SSH to OpenSSH. This is also on Linux 2.2.17.

Good to hear that using ssh2 is a workaround; I'll try that.
