This is two issues in one bug: 

1. Client->server keepalive packets
2. Adding fake traffic to frustrate timing analysis

These are very different issues, though one would probably use the solution to
(1) to implement (2). Exactly how to implement (2) is a subject for further
discussion.

In any case, support for (1) is now in CVS (see ServerAliveInterval and
ServerAliveCountMax), so I'll close this bug. I think any traffic analysis
defeat should be thrashed out on openssh-unix-dev@ and filed as a separate bug
