I just applied these two patches:

  CCE Security Update 4.0.1: Qube3-All-Security-4.0.1-15714.pkg   

  Qube3 Kernel Update: Qube3-All-Kernel-4.0.1-2.2.16C33-III+VPN-1.pkg 

and now /var/log/messages only shows my connection from my own fully
qualified address:

  Feb 10 08:19:46 cobalt sshd[3942]: Accepted password for tdunn from <ipaddress> port 
47404 ssh2

Never mind the fact that I am connecting in from afar.  This is of some
concern because I use hosts.allow as one of my methods of access control.
Prior to updating, it would correctly act based on my source host.  Now,
*all* inbound hosts are treated as if they are from my own fqdn, effectively
neutralizing the effect of hosts.allow if I allow myself to connect.

How do I best resolve this issue?
