FWIW, I could reproduce the problem, but only with protocol
version 2:

$ ssh -2 sub2 tar cf - . | head | wc
     10      58    1294
[hangs]

Using ssh -1, ssh does not hang:

$ ssh -1 sub2 tar cf - . | head | wc
     10      58    1294
Write failed flushing stdout buffer.
write stdout: Broken pipe

Stuff related to channel 0 from ssh -2 -v -v -v:

debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
debug3: ssh_session2_open: channel_new: 0
debug1: send channel open 0
debug1: channel request 0: x11-req
debug1: channel request 0: exec
debug1: channel 0: open confirm rwindow 0 rmax 32768
debug2: channel 0: rcvd adjust 131072
debug1: channel 0: write failed
debug1: channel 0: close_write
debug1: channel 0: output open -> closed

HTH.


Ciao
