SSH seems very finicky... in many ways. Unless this has been changed
in recent versions, it's also possible to disrupt/deny ssh service
if the directory *above* a login id's home directory isn't readable.
Can anyone explain what *that* requirement is for?

ps: Also, as a side note, scp seems to ignore alternative-login in ssh.
I'm not sure if that's a feature or a bug -- I consider it a bug and
thus have disabled scp on sites where I use alternative-login.
