There seems to be a problem with the %C token when used in localcommand 
(controlpath works with it though).

    larryp:~ larry$ ssh -F /dev/null -o permitlocalcommand=yes -o 
localcommand="echo \"%C\"" larryp at 192.168.1.1 hostname |& cat -vt
    192.168.1.1
    hostname
    larryp:~ larry$ ssh -F /dev/null -o permitlocalcommand=yes -o 
localcommand="echo \"%C\"" larryp at 192.168.1.1 hostname |& cat -vt
    ^P^EM-pM-zM-z^?
    hostname
    larryp:~ larry$ ssh -F /dev/null -o permitlocalcommand=yes -o 
localcommand="echo \"%C\"" larryp at 192.168.1.1 hostname |& cat -vt

    hostname

Please reply to my email address.

Thanks
