There seems to be an odd bug in SSH 2.4.0. When connecting to certain hosts
(shell.sourceforge.net is one prominent example) the connection always fails
with the error
Disconnected; MAC error (Message authentication check fails.).
This happens before the password prompt is displayed. Another machine running
2.3.0 connects fine.
Here's the relevent portion of the -v output:
debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating transport protocol

Anyone else seeing something like this?
