Did you read the error message? Perhaps you should. Perhaps reporting it
here would help someone to actually fix your problem instead of having to
guess.

Hmm. Can you try cvsupping your src-crypto and src-secure collections from
another (non-US) cvsup server? One of the mirror sites in germany was
bogusly fetching crypto from the US - I assumed it had been fixed by now
after multiple emails to the maintainer, but perhaps it hasn't. SSH should
work out of the box for International people.

Read /etc/defaults/make.conf

Enough people wanted it in the base system - in fact, when the question
was asked about importing it, I don't recall any objections - certainly it
was not a significant opposition.
I'm quite surprised you've missed any discussion of OpenSSH here though,
since it's probably been one of the most discussed topics here for the
past few weeks.
