Aside: this doesn't work for me when session sharing options are applied:

------ 8< ------
Host foobar
ProxyCommand sh -c "echo use foo instead >&2"

Host *
  ControlMaster auto
  ControlPersist 2
  ControlPath %d/tmp/ssh_mux_%h_%p_%r
------ 8< -------

% ssh foobar
Connection closed by UNKNOWN port 65535

And yet:

% ssh -v foobar
...
debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_9.9
use foo instead
kex_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
Connection closed by UNKNOWN port 65535

I guess this is because the connection handler is being punted off to a 
background process?
