The error is getting back to the client.  On the client,
remoteAuthenticate does fail and return -1.  The client then
ends up blocked in the waitpid at remote_internal.c:877:

865  failed:
866     /* Close the socket if we failed. */
867     if (priv->sock >= 0) {
868         if (priv->uses_tls && priv->session) {
869             gnutls_bye (priv->session, GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR);
870             gnutls_deinit (priv->session);
871         }
872         close (priv->sock);
873 #ifndef WIN32
874         if (priv->pid > 0) {
875             pid_t reap;
876             do {
877                 reap = waitpid(priv->pid, NULL, 0);
878                 if (reap == -1 && errno == EINTR)
879                     continue;
880             } while (reap != -1 && reap != priv->pid);
881         }
882 #endif
883     }

Nothing gets printed up until this point, which is why there's no
output.

I guess the client is waiting for SSH to die, which isn't happening
for some reason.  That must be a bug on the server side, although 
the client should also probably be more robust in this case..
