[scponly] scponly stopped working after last Red Hat erratum

Hi,

Since the last Red Hat erratum for openssh was released
(http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2009-1668.html) scponly stopped
working with sftp connections on RHEL5.
I get no messages, the connection just gets closed after succesfully
logging on.

When I configure the ssh server to use 'internal-sftp' it works again, 
but then the chroot-function of scponly doesn't work (which is essential 
for us.)

I've downgraded to the previous openssh release and things worked as 
before again.

Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this (besides preventing openssh
to be updated ever again, which is not really a solution....).


Thanks,

Dennis
