I thought this issue occurs from openssh-3.9 because of introduction of
re-exec feature.
I tried by disabling the re-exec feature and still I see a large number of
close() calls during connection.
Is there any other possible reason for the issue.

If this has been done for re-exec can we just fix for the re-exec disabled
case. Is there any issue with this.

Thanks
