just a heads up, I run RH6.5, not able to upgrade at the moment to 6.6 (and it looks like it wouldn't help either), I have worked around the ControlPersist issue by installing a openssh6 client on my control host box (/opt/openssh6), I then have a wrapper script that calls ansible-playbook and sets the PATH to collect ssh and friends from /opt/openssh6/bin before /usr/bin.
because it only uses the openssh client (no daemons running), there's no conflict with the normal redhat packages.
