No feedback yet, so..

Attached is a patch for the spec file to Require the same version of
OpenSSL (0.9.5a vs. 0.9.6) as OpenSSH was compiled against.

If 'cut' were to be tailed, this could also be tailored to require
_exactly_ the same version, but this might be a pain (and I'd first like
to know of cases where this isn't enough..)
