  Modified files:
    security/openssh     Makefile 
  Log:
  Good-bye, RESTRICTED.
  
  Reasons:
  1. It's not crypto.
  2. It links with crypto.
  	a. That crypto is in the public domain.
  	b. Linking with crypto does not constitute cryptography.
  3. Even if it were crypto, the description of the entire protocol, etc.,
     is in the public domain.  The RFC is PD in the USA, and the white paper
     in Europe.
  4. Precedence?  Even if it were crypto, the Bernstein case has set
     precedence for allowing export of that.  But it's not even crypto.
