So, what happens if OpenSSL is compiled with that option, and then run on a
machine that doesn't have a card?  Does it fall back to "usual" methods, or
does it choke and die?  If it's the first, I will add it to my build scripts
for Slack/390.  If it's the latter, then not.

Since OpenSSH includes OpenSSL, if your version of OpenSSL is compiled with
the right options (--with-ibm-crypto, I think), you get it by inheritance
for the bits that use OpenSSL.

The crypto cards help most with the asymmetric bits.
