Sounds like a good idea.

I think it's worth the wait to have openssh included.

One minor thought.  In OpenBSD there is still a port for ssh1, and
they have it so the port for ssh1 starts that up on port 2022.  We
(at RPI) have found a few ssh clients that do not work well with
openssh, and I think it would be a good idea to do something similar
to what openbsd did with the port for ssh1.

(maybe not exactly the same -- maybe have it just some messages that
the ssh1-build process will print out so people are aware of that
option.  4.0-release wouldn't have to wait for those adjustments to
the ssh1 port, of course)
