#
# Make the "ext" method more intelligent; allow specification of the
# "rsh" command using ext=<command>. Extended to recognise "extssh" the
# same way as "ext=ssh"
#
# Original patch by Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky.perez-gonzalez@intel.com>,
# extension by Steve McIntyre <steve@einval.com>. Bugs #165432 and #276328
