After upgrading my VMware Fusion (10.1.3) Arch Guest to the latest with
OpenSSH upgraded from 7.7p1 to 7.8p1, found that ssh from macOS Sierra
(10.12.6) host to Arch guest via local NAT port forwarding failed, but via
Arch LAN IP worked, downgraded OpenSSH from 7.8p1 to 7.7p1 fixed the
problem.

Any idea about this bug?
