Current's ssh (cvs-updated yesterday) can't load one of the key files
and gripes about it in the auth log.
Mar 26 08:09:49 capsicum inetd[27505]: connection from localhost, service ssh (tcp6)
Mar 26 08:09:49 capsicum sshd[27505]: Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key
Mar 26 08:09:49 capsicum sshd[27505]: Generating 768 bit RSA key.
Mar 26 08:09:49 capsicum sshd[27505]: RSA key generation complete.
Mar 26 08:09:50 capsicum sshd[27505]: Accepted rsa for wolfgang from ::1 port 49212
It looks like /usr/bin/ssh is no longer installed suid-root. Is this
a bug or intentional? (If intentional does that mean one is expected
to chmod the private keyfiles to be user readable???)
