Description Mario Lorenz 2007-01-18 01:15:20 AEDT 
Enabling options like ServerAliveInterval for a specific host
does not work:

Host example.com
   ServerAliveInterval 30

should enable the keepalive *only* for example.com, when in fact
does do that globally (for all hosts), even a later
Host *
   ServerAliveInterval 0
will not help.


Reason is that at the parse_time label, activep is not honored.
