scp should not report 100% until the last byte is transferred

Hello,

just my opinion, but yesterday I run into a case, where after 7 hours of 
transferring a file (a little bit greater than 1 GB) the scp reported 100% and 
after that exited with an error (AIX 7.1):

$ tsocks scp foo user at host:/tmp
...
100% 1101MB  44.2KB/s 448.0KB/s 7:05:38    
scp: /tmp/foo: File too large

Probably it should not be rounded up to 100% ?
