openssh unix dev - Aug 2009 - mput/mget misbehavior

A couple of notes about mget/mput in SFTP (5.1p1).

1.  They aren't documented in the SFTP man page
2   They misbehave --
        "mput a.txt b.txt"  copies a.txt to b.txt on the server
        "mput *.txt b.txt"  copies the first wildcard match to b.txt
on
the server
        "mput a.txt b.txt c.txt"  copies a.txt to b.txt on the server
        "mput a.txt b.txt /tmp"   copies a.txt to b.txt on the server

this will be changing soon: there are some patches coming from Carlos Silva,
our Google Summer of Code Intern.
