Bug#143195: ssh2: abort of password read goes in to infinite loop

[Brian White <bcwhite@precidia.com>]

Package: ssh2
Version: 2.0.13-7

If, while being prompted for a password on the remote machine, I hit CTRL-C,
the program goes in to an infinite loop prompting (repeatedly) for the
password without waiting.  Only a "kill -9" will stop it.

tolkien:~/tmp> !scp
scp ppp_2.4.1-4.mppe.1_i386.deb root@gateway:/tmp/
root@gateway's password: ^C
root@gateway's password:
