 why not install the portable version? its much newer than the one you have.

I don't know what you mean by the portable version. 

Can I assume that the answer to my original question then, is no?

It lives in /usr/ports/security/openssh-portable/

Much newer, more secure, and fun for the whole family.

i dont recall the original question! =)

openssh-portable is what i am speaking of.

the port is at /usr/ports/security/openssh-portable

current version is at 4.5 whereas yours was 1-2 major versions behind that.

check it out. once its installed, add this to /etc/rc.conf

sshd_enable=NO
openssh_enable=YES

that way the built in ssh doesnt run but openssh does. works wunderbar!

This says it only affects SSH Protocol version 1. If you only use
version 2 or you're not too concerned, you could do: 
$ sudo portupgrade -m DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES=yes -R openssh
