Doesn't one of the other bug reports mention it? Maybe not ...

It's fiddly, but the main reason I haven't done it yet is that ssh has
hundreds of bug reports and during the sarge release cycle I much
preferred to try to get the thing as stable as possible and cut the bug
count down before doing large and potentially destabilizing things. As
I've now said several times in this thread, it's first on the list for
sarge+1.
