This sounds more like a problem in OSX Terminal.app than ssh. We could do
something like this:


diff --git a/ssh.c b/ssh.c
index 48d93ddf2..7cd498f84 100644
--- a/ssh.c
+++ b/ssh.c
@@ -1313,7 +1313,7 @@ main(int ac, char **av)
 		 * Try to use SSH indicated by argv[0], but fall back to
 		 * "ssh" if it appears unavailable.
 		 */
-		if (strchr(argv0, '/') != NULL && access(argv0, X_OK) != 0)
+		if (access(argv0, X_OK) != 0)
 			sshbin = "ssh";
 
 		/* Consistency check */
