bug in scp (OpenSSH)

[Erik Benner]

I have a version that does this... and adds my throughput back in to.... now
for the tough part...

What do I do next? I've not contributed code/fixes to a FreeBSD project
before? Do I sent diffs?

I'm afraid I disagree.  I like the scp progress info.
To a naive user it let's them know that at least
something is happening.  The advanced user knows
enough to turn it off, IMO.
