Please note that ssh does *not* use RSAREF by default, it uses its own
internal implementation. You have to turn RSAREF on during configure
with --with-rsaref
The ssh readme's are pretty negative about rsaref, and it appears you have
to go and get the rsaref package separately. I've never seen a ssh/sshd
compiled using RSAREF, but I imagine some are out there.
