Problem SSHing to HP ILO SSH-2.0-mpSSH_0.1.0 with 5.8p1

[Espen Fjellvær Olsen]

Hi everyone,
We are recently seeing a problem with OpenSSH 5.8p1 and SSH to ILO cards 
running SSH-2.0-mpSSH_0.1.0.
This has previously worked with OpenSSH 5.5p1 (last known version for us 
to work).

ssh ilohost -vvv gives the following on 5.8p1:

Received disconnect from 10.20.12.30: 2: Client Disconnect



The received disconnect is almost instant, so it is not a timeout or 
anything like that.
I have also tried unsetting LANG, ssh -a, ssh -x etc. etc.
