But OpenSSH isn't under the GPL license it is under a "BSD style" license
which doesn't have the requirements of source distribution.
Are you saying that there is GPL code in this port ? If so I hope one
of if has made it back into the OpenSSH core or portable trees otherwise
there are serious legal issues because you can't do that.
