	Under NetBSD-10.99.12 (sources as of November 21, 2024), sshd(8) appears not to be
consulting the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files when deciding whether to offer a
banner to incoming connections.  A check with ldd against /usr/sbin/sshd and
/usr/lib/libssh.so.48.0 shows that libwrap.so isn't needed by either of these files.
Is this an intentional change and, if it is, where can I find it documented?
-thanks
