Uh, thanks. Maybe this info should be added to the man page.

xauth is needed for the automatic X11 protocol forwarder within SSH. The xauth path is hard compiled into SHH as `/usr/X11R6/bin/xauth' which will break the X11 protocol forwarder when X11 is installed somewhere else. FreeBSD's Makefiles for SSH do not make use of the variable X11BASE which may be set in /etc/make.conf. Fix: The fix is obvious.
