I am running fossil 370d5be389 both locally and on the server to which I'm connecting. Using this version of fossil, I have created a repository:

<pre>
remote:/home/me/ $ uname -a
FreeBSD remote.example.com 7.3-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE-p2 #0 r210461M: Sun Jul 25 11:12:37 UTC 2010
remote:/home/me/ $ which fossil
/home/me/bin/fossil
remote:/home/me/ $ fossil new test-repo.fossil
project-id: ...
server-id: ...
admin-user: ...
</pre>

I then attempt to clone this repository.

<pre>
local:/home/me/ $ uname -a
Linux local 2.6.35-19-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Sun Aug 29 06:34:38 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
local:/home/me/ $ fossil clone ssh://username@remote.example.com//home/me/test-repo.fossil?fossil=/home/me/bin/fossil test-repo.fossil
me@remote.example.com's password: 
                Bytes      Cards  Artifacts     Deltas
Send:              49          1          0          0
</pre>

Output then stops there, with the process not accepting any input or responding, until killed with ^C.

I imagine there must be some issue with FreeBSD's SSH.
