Assuming it's not a problem related to your networking setup inside
your virtual machine, and that you have the same packages installed
on the 2 systems, I guess you should report it to xen.

It could be a bug in the emulation. openssh-portable only tries to
make it possible to run openssh on as many systems as possible,
accomodating many different libraries/APIs. As opposed to getting
around bugs in emulation/virtualization software.

If the two systems are the same, you could compare the binaries, run
them on one another. Don't forget to also check openssl.


Flavien.
