Description Dmitry Belyavskiy 2021-05-11 17:55:34 AEST 
OpenSSH incorrectly restores the standard mode (blocking mode) on standard output upon exiting. This causes the next shell scripts commands to potentially fail in EAGAIN.
The reproducer is:

#!/bin/sh
(
ssh localhost true
cat /dev/zero
) | sleep 30

Restoring the blocking modes happens with the duped file descriptors and too late.

The changes causing this problem was introduced in 4d5456c
