Problems with SFTP

[rogier at tw.reverze.net]

Guys,

Once again I need some help I hope you can give me. When I try to SFTP to
any of my PCs (also running openssh) from my Xscale (ARM,
big-endian) system sftp segfaults on me. Sftp to the xscale system works
without any problems. I'm using openssl-0.9.8b (with ocf support),
linux-2.6.16 and openssh 4.3p2 on the Xscale system. One of the systems I
try to sftp to runs Openssh 3.7.1p2, with openssl 0.9.7 and linux 2.4.27.
Below is an output of what ssh -v shows. ssh, scp, and sftp to this system
works fine, it's only sftp from this system. I've tried the SNPRINTF workaround,
which doesn't seem to help. Any ideas I can try? Note, the reason it can't
create files is because those files would be created on a rom filesystem.
Modifying the user directory so it creates them on a RAM filesystem
doesn't work either though. Hope you can help.

Regards,

Rogier
