-------
This has reoccurred as of 3.6.1p2. With 3.6.1p1, there was no delay for a root
login when PermitRootLogin was off regardless of whether the supplied password
was correct or not. With 3.6.1p2 and "PermitRootLogin no", an
incorrect password
for root incurs a delay while a correct password does not.

(Apologies if this should have been a new bug.)
