That's bad. File a bug if you care.

In my copy of the openssh manpage there is no mention of that particular
problem. It may mostly be indicating a lower-level networking problem.
If you're behind a socksified proxy, it is likely that you cannot
directly reach outside hosts. It appears that your ssh is attempting
to make direct connections anyway. It may indicate a ssh-socks problem
or a configuration issue.
