This message prompted me to go get the latest version of
OpenSSH. I discovered, much to my horror, that they've BSDified it so
badly it's nearly impossible to get it to compile and run on a Linux
box. :-(
Time for someone else to start with an old version of ssh and
fix it. *sigh*
Have fun (if at all possible),
