Thinking about this: how about if a missing "@port" portion implied "@22", and
when creating new entries for port 22 the "@port" portion was omitted?

That would mean that a patched ssh would still create known_hosts files that are
compatible with older versions for the common case (handy for, eg, an
NFS-mounted /home shared by multiple hosts).
