   Around here (OS X 10.11.3):

   Mac to itself:

pro3$ ssh pro3 pwd
/Users/sms
pro3$ ssh pro3 -q pwd
/Users/sms
pro3$ 

   Mac to VMS:

pro3$ ssh alp-l 'show default'

@ SYS$MANAGER:ANNOUNCE.TXT

  ALP$DKC0:[SMS]
pro3$ ssh alp-l -q 'show default'

  ALP$DKC0:[SMS]
pro3$ 

   I can't see any justification for displaying SYS$ANNOUNCE
to a non-interactive user (that is, with a command
specified).  And, of course, it might be nice if the SSH
server could read SYS$ANNOUNCE as well as the usual program
(LOGINOUT?) can.


   I've forgotten -- Is there any hope to escape this (new)
limitation?:

alp $ ssh pro3
