I can still build and install it from /usr/ports/security/rsaref.

Perhaps I was mistaken, but wasn't OpenSSH included in 4.0-R as part of
the base install?  If so, I can't really see why you'd want to just
upgrade OpenSSH and not the rest of the OS (considering that 4.0-R was a
dog, much like any other dot-zero release.)

With all the crypto changes, the easiest thing to do (imho) is to upgrade
to 4.1-R or 4.2-R.
