Ah yes, "Breaks too often" seems to be a not uncommon complaint against openssL even on un*x systems, at least . It has a hairy build system, at any rate.

I think it includes ssh binaries or there may be a related YaSSH package. -- Ethan Grammatikidis Those who are slower at parsing information must necessarily be faster at problem-solving.
