Creating a session with a pre-connected socket in 0.5.2

["Mark Riordan" <mriordan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello.  
I have an application that works with libssh 0.4.8, and I'm finally
upgrading to libssh 0.5.2.
It seems that the ability to use a pre-connected socket does not work in
libssh 0.5.2. 

I use libssh's capability to pass a pre-connected socket, like so:
  ssh_options_set(session, SSH_OPTIONS_FD, &sock);
  ssh_connect(session);
(The reason for this is that some users need to connect via a proxy, so my
application first connects to the proxy and authenticates to it, and then
hands the socket to libssh.)

This works fine with 0.4.8.
Under 0.5.2, the call to ssh_connect times out.  It seems that libssh is
waiting for an event before doing anything with the data available on the
socket.  However, the connect event, and any data receive events, have
typically already occurred by the time that libssh gets control.

Has "ssh_options_set(session, SSH_OPTIONS_FD, &sock)" been tested with
0.5.2?
If not, I will file a bug report.
If it's been successfully tested, then I'll be scratching my head, wondering
what I am doing wrong.

Here's a log of a call to ssh_connect:
