  Thanks, sorry for not being clear.


billmurray> ssh -Y 168.254.0.1.    
ssh: Could not resolve hostname 168.254.0.1.: Name or service not known

billmurray> ssh -Y -vvv 168.254.0.1  
....
debug1: Next authentication method: gssapi-with-mic
debug3: Trying to reverse map address 168.254.0.1.
^C

billmurray> ssh -Y -vvv base.ashenden  
....
debug1: Next authentication method: gssapi-with-mic
debug3: Trying to reverse map address 168.254.0.1.
^C

But...I found a work-around: Removing 
	GSSAPIAuthentication yes
from /etc/ssh/ssh_config
has made GSSAPI go away,  and hence the problem goes away too..
