Agreed Scott, I have been using OpenSSH for many many years, since the
first port to Linux, and I never knew about this (pretty cool) way of
removing old keys.

So in addition to adding the text "on line" to the error message, I
would also agree that adding a line after that suggesting that the user
can remove this old key after verification by running 'ssh-keygen -R
$host' would be a great help to discoverability of this feature.
