Bug#550260: add reference to control master to environment of slave sessions



Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:5.1p1-8
Severity: wishlist

It would be good if a slave session had in its environment
a reference to the master session (e.g. the pts of the master, or
similar). This could solve #350898 and alleviate #480266 somewhat.
