Just an FYI, I tested these changes out under Cygwin
and ssh now builds out of the box with the default
Cygwin install.

One thing I noticed, is that in the 2.2.0p1
release it attempts to run executables from
the srcdir, this is fixed in the snap, but
I was wondering why the executables are run
from the build dir instead of the install dir.
This patch was originally from the 2.2.0p1,
it is not needed for the snapshot, it is
just to given you are idea of what I mean.
