#12 hangs on ssh to FreeBSD10

Doing a "sshpass -p password ssh vmfreebsd10-32 -l account ls" hangs forever.

The reason is that in this combination the prompt for the password looks like this:

"Password for account@vmfreebsd10-32:"

and sshpass checks the password against the string "assword:", so there is no match.

    In 1.06 you can specify the prompt to wait for on the command line.
