Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:4.6p1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading to latest unstable today, I couldn't start
sshd any longer. Find below a typescript showing the issues:

Not only does this problem affect linux-i386 as well (and
not only kfreebsd-i386), but also at least the openssh-client
subpackage (file shows /usr/bin/ssh is also a shared object).
As you can see, it's also independent of the shell and appears
in the latest package on the server too.
I have no idea why it's no longer built as ELF executable,
nor how to fix it, but I can't run ssh, either as client or
as server, at the moment.
