Thanks for update. It helped to compile on my system. As I noticed now, 
import/export of keys in ssh-keygen is not supported without openssl 
(according to code), so there are still some things to fix in bash test 
suite. Basically all test cases t1 to t12 are failing. Mostly because of 
the import/export or the key type is unknown.
If I skipped these, whole test suite widely depend on generated rsa keys 
and without major changes in bash test suite I am unable to continue any 
further. This would require some more care.
