Seems to also cause quite some troubles in the use case I've described
in bug #2000, which Damien just marked a dup of this one.
So people may want to have a look there as well for possibly further
information.

Can anyone make some predictions whether this issue can be solved?
It would even be already helpful, when it would offer a special option
that cause the FDs to be closed, just in case there are reasons why you
don't want to make that the default.


Further, when you have a look at the use case I describe in #2000, it
should become obvious that this is done with likely many different
versions of OpenSSH (our oldest still in use 5.3, as part of Scientific
Linux 6)... do you think it requires just an up to date client (which
would be easy for us, as there's one node which opens all the muxes,
which anyway runs recent Debian)... or would all servers need to be
updated as well?
