 I am also experiencing this bug.
 
  From the bottom of the HPN web site
 <http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/>:
 
      Recent problems with buffer_append_space in HPN-SSH.
      If you are experiencing disconnects due to a failure in
      buffer_append_space please let us know.  We're currently tracking
      some problems with this and we're trying to gather more information
      to help resolve it.  You may want to try using
      -oHPNBufferSize=16384 to restrict the growth of the buffer.  Let us
      know if that helps.
 
 I did try setting HPNBufferSize to 16384 and it did make the problem go 
 away.
