You could probably do that but it's solving the symptom not the problem.

Problem: Redhat libc has setresuid/setresgid but includes don't.
Symptom: warnings compiling OpenSSH (and anything else using them).
Solution: get Redhat to fix their headers (which apparently they have).

OpenSSH has to bend over backwards in places to even compile or work
around various vendor brokenness.  I don't think bending further to
suppress (valid!) warnings is something we should do.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
