Bug#237021: X11-forwarding not working

[Kenneth Johansson <ken@switchboard.ericsson.se>]

Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.8p1-1
Severity: important
Tags: sid

After uppgrading X11-forwarding stoped working when using the ssh client.

Tried against solaris 8, debian woody and to localhost and never got X forwarding to work. 

I have not changes any configuration files.

text mode still works OK. DISPLAY is correct as far as I can see.
