Some SSH servers cannot cope with repeat key exchange at

PuTTY pauses the session while performing a repeat key exchange, the
effect of this would be to cause the session to hang after an hour
(unless you have your rekey timeout set differently; see

Other, very old, SSH servers handle repeat key exchange even more
badly, and disconnect upon receiving a repeat key exchange request.
If this bug is detected, PuTTY will never initiate a repeat key
exchange. If this bug is enabled when talking to a correct server,
