Strange read_passphrase behaviour ?

[Jarno Huuskonen]

Hi,

I'm sorry if this has already come up on the list, I did a quick search
of the archive and didn't notice it.

I noticed IMHO strange behavior in read_passphrase:

If readpassphrase returns NULL and sets errno to ENOTTY, then
read_passphrase returns an empty passphrase to the caller instead of
error, now what happens with password authentication is that
if readpassphrase fails every time then ssh sends 3 empty passwords to
the server.

Is this the expected behaviour ?
