If I'm not mistaken ssh2 offers some chroot functionality that OpenSSH is lacking. A description of how to use that chroot functionality and also some ways of exploiting it are described at http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1404. (I just used Google to find it.) That was the one that came to my mind, since I remember that there was also some discussion on the OpenSSH list about Chroot and SSH.
