Hi,
Just thought it might be wise to put on the record that the Cygwin build of OpenSSH-4.0p1-1 also suffers from the upstream bug reported in http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=996:
Summary: Fatal error in xfree() when scp invokes ssh with a LocalForward config
A search of the cygwin mailing list didn't not bring any detail on it, so here it is for others to find.
There is a workaround, until the next version gets released. You can place a colon in front of your local forward spec in your .ssh/config file as so:
LocalForward 10666 arbitraryhost1:1666 -> LocalForward :10666 arbitraryhost1:1666
Regards, Shaddy
