patches/packages/openssh-3.7p1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to openssh-3.7p1.
From the OpenSSH Security Advisory
([link moved to references]):
'All versions of OpenSSH's sshd prior to 3.7 contain a buffer
management error. It is uncertain whether this error is
potentially exploitable, however, we prefer to see bugs
fixed proactively.'
