openssh unix dev - May 2012 - ControlMaster, scp and current working directory

Hi,

It seems there is a problem regarding ControlMaster and scp'ing a file
depending on the current working directory:

$ cd ~/Personnel
$ scp -o ControlMaster=yes cox.jpg host.local:
muxserver_listen bind(): No such file or directory
lost connection
$ scp -o ControlMaster=no cox.jpg host.local:
cox.jpg                                          100%  222KB 222.1KB/s   00:00
$ cd
$ scp -o ControlMaster=yes Personnel/cox.jpg host.local:
cox.jpg                                          100%  222KB 222.1KB/s   00:00
$ scp -o ControlMaster=no Personnel/cox.jpg host.local:
cox.jpg                                          100%  222KB 222.1KB/s   00:00

This is on OpenBSD -current/amd64.

What is the value of your ControlPath? By default it is not set, and
therefore multiplexing is disabled.

Thanks.
