Passing SFTP options when using SCP

[Chris Rapier]

Hey all,

I might have missed this but is there any effective way of passing sftp 
options when using scp? For example, increasing the number of 
outstanding requests which would be the -R command line option in sftp.

For my purposes I'm mostly looking at sending different buffer (-B) and 
request (-R) options. Even better if there is a way to do that 
programmatically. For example, in sftp-client.c I can just change 
DEFAULT_NUM_REQUESTS to whatever value I like and every sftp transfer I 
initiate will use that.

Just curious. If there isn't I'll try to come up with a method and share 
it when I'm done.
