I'm looking to understand why this is happening, both the message about
a packet in the handshake being malformed, and the subsequent "[TCP
segment of a reassembled PDU]" messages.

Specifically, the SSH sessions that are problematic can be seen with:
tcp.stream eq 5
tcp.stream eq 7
tcp.stream eq 18
tcp.stream eq 25

All those SSH sessions (as well as the one in tcp stream 4) use a SSHv2 server and a SSHv1.99 client. Somehow wireshark 
is not able to dissect these sessions correctly. Googling on version number "SSH-1.99-3.2.9" results in a lot of people 
having interconnection problems. It looks like this version might be following the RFC a bit differently. Maybe that's 
why Wireshark is also having trouble. Could you file a big report on bugs.wireshark.org and attach the capture file. 
Then it can be looked at more thoroughly as I'm not able to spend time on it now....

Cheers,


Sake
