+Description: Reduce severity of "Killed by signal %d"
+ This produces irritating messages when using ProxyCommand or other programs
+ that use ssh under the covers (e.g. Subversion).  These messages are more
+ normally printed by the calling program, such as the shell.
+ .
+ According to the upstream bug, the right way to avoid this is to use the -q
+ option, so we may drop this patch after further investigation into whether
+ any software in Debian is still relying on it.
