I've got Yarrow0.8.71 ported over from Win32, and I'm just moving the
hooks. Before I do that, can you confirm that we can use stuff from ssh
version 1.2.16? The openssh ssh manpage talks about 1.2.12. I can't find
a copy 1.2.12 to compare.

I only bring it up because the distributions on the all the offical ssh
mirrors start at 1.2.13, which makes me think 1.2.12 has some special
significance.

openssl. Yarrow-0.8.71 only seems to use SHA-1 (no three key triple-DES
as in the paper.)
