Title:
  sftp remoteserver "ls -l" error

Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When connected via sftp to remote server, the "ls -l *" returns wrong
  information, other then "ls -l filename".

  Example:
  -----------------------------------------------
  $ uname -a
  Linux laptop 2.6.38-15-generic #59-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 27 16:04:29 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
  $ ssh -v
  OpenSSH_5.8p1 Debian-1ubuntu3, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010
  ....
  $ sftp remoteserver
  sftp> ls -l *tgz
  -rw-r--r--    0 1001     0          334258 Jun 10 21:59 ifly.root.tgz
  -rw-r--r--    0 1001     0          467990 Jul 24 09:50 ifly_root.tgz
  sftp> ls -l ifly.root.tgz
  -rw-r--r--    0 1001     0          467990 Jul 24 09:50 ifly.root.tgz
  sftp> ls -l ifly_root.tgz
  -rw-r--r--    0 1001     0          334258 Jun 10 21:59 ifly_root.tgz
  sftp> 
  -----------------------------------------------

  The file ifly.root.tgz is really 467990 bytes and Jul 24 09:50, and ifly_root.tgz is 334258 bytes and Jun 10 21:59.
  It`s correct.
  But when used "ls -l *tgz" sizes and dates not corresponds to filenames, and when  "ls -l *" filenames and file attributes may be mixed in random order: directory "/tmp" marked as file "-rw-r--r-", file "index.html" marked as directory, etc.
  With other remote servers too.

  When connecting to this and other remote servers from FreeBSD (openssh
  5.4) all works fine.
