There is no such thing as `the "-L" option to SSH'.  There is a -L
option to some implementations of SSH, which is not at all the same
thing.

You're not the only one annoyed by people assuming that everyone else
is running the same ssh implementation they are.  (Or the same $FOO
implementation they are, for various values of $FOO.)  I've even run
into one relatively popular program (well, suite of programs) which has
such assumptions (about ssh) wired into string constants in its source
code.
