Take the usual precautions when upgrading.

Also note that I have changed some configuration defaults: the server
no longer accepts protocol version 1 nor password authentication by
default.  If your ssh client does not support ssh protocol version 2
or keyboard-interactive authentication, the recommended measures are:

 1) get a better client
 2) get a better client (I mean it)
 3) get a better client (for real this time!)

and as a last resort

 4) enable procol version 1 and password authentication in sshd_config
