Yep, upgraded twice in two days--first to 3.7p1 then 3.7.1p1.  Both times 
from source and no problems.  The part that is ironic is that all my FreeBSD 
systems were a breeze but my old OpenBSD 2.8 doesn't look like it has a 
patch that matches for the 3.7x release (only 3.6 and below) of OpenSSH.

It seems like the safe way is to upgrade the same way you installed (source, 
ports, packages) and then verify your /etc/rc.conf and /etc/defaults/rc.conf 
to be sure you are loading the updated binary on reboot.  You can verify the 
version by doing '/path/to/sshd -\?' or running it and telnetting to the box 
on port 22 and getting the banner.
