And why do you think it had a different length?

It is something ssh adds to avoid having a socket where noone listens.
So there are two bugs:
- ssh does not take this random stuff into account when checking the
length of the ControlPath option.
- git-annex assuming it have the complete 100 bytes, while ssh takes 16
for itself.
