Hi Rowland,

As you can easily reproduce this, can you please file a bug report
and upload network captures. For the following cases:

1. the original problem
2. with Volkers patch
3. with your changed sshd config

It would be perfect if you could also provide a keytab in order to
decrypt the krb5 traffic.

Looking at captures will likely help in order to judge if Volker's fix
is correct/complete related to security.

Thanks!
