All this is is a patch! Red Hat has always applied patches to OpenSSH
for their distribution. Why the attitude now?
Are you going to tell everyone trying to use OpenSSH on Solaris (or
Cobalt RaQ550s, or ...) to go away as well because the OS vendor patched
it before shipping it? How many of those vendors even make their
(possibly modified) source code available at all?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
