    Is is maybe commented out in the config file?
    When I updated, I had to go back in and make changes.
    I am not doing forwarding though.
    

No, I uncommented it.  But you were right, I also had to go uncomment it
once I performed the upgrade.

I have on my client side xforwarding turned on, but just to check, I
used the -X to explicitly enable it there.  Same effect.

Can this be completely disabled at compile time?

For reference, here's the command I use (with domain removed to protect
customer):

ssh -X -C -ladmin www.domain.com

Any other suggestions (anyone?)
