I have been searching Google for a solution to this problem.  I have found that many people respond with an answer like "use scp, does anybody use ZModem anymore anyhow?"  In case that mindset is influential in the decission to fix this bug I'd like to point out that scp can only make one hop, whereas with SSH I can connect to a computer that has an opening through a firewall, then connect to others that are behind the firewall, then use sz to transfer an individual file, thus it's still very useful.

In the meantime I use zssh, but it's less than ideal for other reasons, one of which is that I have to anticipate its need before I connect and make the multiple hops.
