That was in the alias position of the hosts files. And while is now been
removed, it did work as an alias to dddprint.
My best guess, and admittedly a WAG, certainly not a SWAG, is that ssh
and its ilk have been around for yonks. It has not been updated to allow
what the lastest rfc now does. Based on that, perhaps a low priority bug
should be entered? If ones memory is working, and at 86, that's iffy at
best, but having been bit 2x by it now, I'll remember it a little
better.
