For a while I was having a problem where different versions of SSH
displayed different key fingerprints for the same RSA key (possibly it
depends on the protocol used?).  I may have misunderstood the problem, but
if this does exist, has it been resolved?  Also, any hope of agent
forwarding working with protocol 2 someday?
