While I realize that this doesn't introduce a new external dependency, I have to say that this is not the week to be asking for a new distro patch to OpenSSH! I'd be happy to include this if upstream does, but I don't think I'm likely to apply this in advance of upstream. -- Colin Watson (he/him) [cjwat...@debian.org]
