Actually, the openssh-portable folks are keeping an eye on the hpn  
patches, but those are still evolving so PSC isn't willing to submit  
them for inclusion.  Try searching the openssh list for discussion  
about it.

(No, I imagine they wouldn't be imported into the OpenBSD version,  
but then, neither is PAM support.  I'm not sure we care what they  
think, given that FreeBSD's openssh supports PAM.)
