So the idea is to keep the 'simple' for implementations that do not
support OpenSSH options, but declare that the auto-detection was
overly conservative and assume that -4/6/p are supported by
everybody?

This change means that those who were meant to be helped by the
original change, that introduced 'simple' and made the (overly
conservative) auto-detection, would now have to explicitly set
ssh.variant to simple, because otherwise they will be passed one of
these three options.  Am I reading the intention of the change
correctly?  If so, I tend to agree that it is lesser of the two
evils to make sure things continue to work for older openssh users
with their current setting like this patch does, even with the cost
of telling users with implementations that do not honor -4/6/p to
set things up manually, I guess.

Thanks, both, for digging this issue through.
