First pass, it seems fine on Slackware 7.  A few problems on Unixware 7.1.0

Here is the config output from Unixware 7.1.0:

OpenSSH configured has been configured with the following options.
                 User binaries: /usr/local/bin

                      PID file: /usr/local/etc

     Linker flags:  -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/local/ssl

Man pages are now fine.  I could compile and install fine, but when I
try to start sshd I get this:

bash-2.03# sshd
error: Could not load host key: /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key: Bad file number
Disabling protocol version 1

I deleted this file (and the .pub) and did a new "make install" to regenerate
it.  Same results.  The key files looks OK to me.  "sshd -ddd" gives me no
clue.

Everything else seems OK, first pass, on UNixware 7.1

openssh-SNAP-20010217 runs fine.  I did update from openssl 0.9.6 to 0.9.6a
at the same time, but I dounbt that is the problem here.  Any ideas?
