I don't think anyone has identified putty or openssh as causing
problems. (I think people have discussed problems with plink, though).
Openssh is our standard connection method on *nix.
Note that you should be able to set BZR_SSH=paramiko to force bzr to use
that SSH implementation, so you don't have to change your paths.
