Does this imply that you have solved your problem? It is always nice
to know when things come to conclusion.

As far as I know it has always been a lower case -p option. I am
currently using v4.3 from Debian's Stable release.

You can also avoid the short option and spell out the long option.
When in doubt I would use the long option.

ssh -oPort=10000

I tend to prefer the long options when used in scripts because they
are more self-documenting. Also it shouldn't be possible to confuse
it with other options.
