For completeness, if you run sshd with -d the debug output actually
looks like this:

...
debug2: channel 0: request keepalive_at_openssh.com confirm 1
debug2: channel 0: request keepalive_at_openssh.com confirm 1
debug2: channel 0: request keepalive_at_openssh.com confirm 1
Timeout, client not responding.

You can easily reproduce this by running the example code with your
system's libssh2 (assuming it is an old version, which will hold for
some time yet...):

jas_at_mocca:~/src/libssh2/example master$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libssh2.so.1 ./ssh2_idle 127.0.0.1 root
