openssh unix dev - Sep 2006 - ExitOnForwardFailure and Protocol 2.0

I'm merging my "streamlocal" unix domain socket forwarding patch
into 4.4p1
(or rather 20060926 SNAP) and I gather that the ExitOnForwardFailure
capability only works for protocol 1.0.

Am I misreading things? I was really looking forward to that feature.

I noticed when I began fixing a merge reject in
channel_request_remote_forwarding().

I think so, I use ExitOnForwardFailure with protocol 2 all the time.

$ ssh -2 -o exitonforwardfailure=yes -R 22:127.0.0.1:22 localhost
Error: remote port forwarding failed for listen port 22
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_4.4p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7f 22 Mar 2005

Can you give an example of it not working?
