Unfortunately this bug still exists in 3.5p1 and 3.4p1 versions.
I've checked it on Sun Solaris 2.6 and HP 11.00 platforms and on both has this
problem.
If the failure based on scp function itself like "file not found" i've got
correct (>0) exit status.
If the failure conection related like "Connection refused" or "bad hostname"
i've got exit status 0.
It denies using scp (and ssh in general) in scripts.
