Those are certainly valid work-arounds to the issues I'm having, but I
would argue that this message is not useful even in the interactive
path with the default logging level.  It's not an error and it doesn't
solicit user interaction.  All of the other uses of the INFO level in
this file fall into one of those categories.  It's certainly useful for
development and debugging, but not to the end user.  It may even be
worth arguing that this message should be part of one of the DEBUG
levels.  The following examples from sshconnect2.c seem like valid
precedent:

line 399:
debug("Authentication succeeded (%s).", authctxt.method->name);

line 556:
debug("Authentications that can continue: %s", authlist);

line 1888:
debug("Next authentication method: %s", name);
