https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/commit/7acefbbcbeab725420ea07397ae35992f505f702

Removed the feature that you could use the format -L a/b/c etc..  (this
is used by http://sourceforge.net/projects/pacmanager/)

basically  hpdelim split on '/' - but parse_fwd_field uses that to
indicate something else.

As far as I could see the commit and "Potentially-incompatible changes"
in the release log did not mention the change.

was it an intended change? (I've no idea why PAC decided to use that
syntax...)
