Not a bit deal, but for your awareness.

It appears that the arcfour family of ciphers are broken for ssh/sshd on mpss 3.1.2. Below you can see attempts from host->mic and mic->itself with and without the arcfour cipher selected. (Wasn't broken on the last version (2.1.6720-15) I had running.)

[user@host ~]$ ssh -c arcfour mic0 # broken (host -> mic)
Bad packet length 31885329.
Disconnecting: Packet corrupt
[user@host ~]$ ssh mic0  # works (host -> mic)
[user@host-mic0 ~]$ ssh -c arcfour mic0 # broken (mic -> self)
Bad packet length 3193176100.
Disconnecting: Packet corrupt
