Hi all,

tried OpenIndiana /hipster compile of openssh-SNAP-20180813.tar.gz, 
within bare zone... Details:
$ gcc --version
gcc (OpenIndiana 6.4.0-OI-3) 6.4.0

$ ./configure --prefix=/pz/SFW/snapssh --with-pam 
--with-solaris-projects --with-solaris-privs --with-xauth=/usr/bin/xauth 
--with-md5-passwords --with-mantype=man # note absence of kerberos setup 
- it fails in any case
...
OpenSSH has been configured with the following options:
                      User binaries: /pz/SFW/snapssh/bin
                    System binaries: /pz/SFW/snapssh/sbin
                Configuration files: /pz/SFW/snapssh/etc
                    Askpass program: /pz/SFW/snapssh/libexec/ssh-askpass
                       Manual pages: /pz/SFW/snapssh/share/man/manX
                           PID file: /var/run
   Privilege separation chroot path: /var/empty
             sshd default user PATH: 
/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/pz/SFW/snapssh/bin
    (If PATH is set in /etc/default/login it will be used instead. If
    used, ensure the path to scp is present, otherwise scp will not work.)
                     Manpage format: man
                        PAM support: yes
                    OSF SIA support: no
                  KerberosV support: no
                    SELinux support: no
               MD5 password support: yes
                    libedit support: no
                    libldns support: no
   Solaris process contract support: no
            Solaris project support: yes
          Solaris privilege support: yes
        IP address in $DISPLAY hack: no
            Translate v4 in v6 hack: no
                   BSD Auth support: no
               Random number source: OpenSSL internal ONLY
              Privsep sandbox style: solaris

               Host: i386-pc-solaris2.11
           Compiler: gcc
     Compiler flags: -g -O2 -pipe -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wuninitialized 
-Wsign-compare -Wformat-security -Wsizeof-pointer-memaccess 
-Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-unused-result -fno-strict-aliasing 
-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -ftrapv -fno-builtin-memset -fstack-protector-strong
Preprocessor flags:
       Linker flags:  -Wl,-z,now -fstack-protector-strong
          Libraries: -lresolv -lcrypto -lnsl -lz -lsocket  -lproject
          +for sshd:  -lpam -ldl

SVR4 style packages are supported with "make package"

PAM is enabled. You may need to install a PAM control file
for sshd, otherwise password authentication may fail.
Example PAM control files can be found in the contrib/
subdirectory

...
$ gmake -j 1 # has produced code, only few warnings (I can provide full 
log, on demand).

$ file /pz/SFW/snapssh/sbin/sshd
/pz/SFW/snapssh/sbin/sshd:      ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386 Version 
1, dynamically linked, stripped

$ file /pz/SFW/snapssh/bin/ssh
/pz/SFW/snapssh/bin/ssh:        ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386 Version 
1, dynamically linked, stripped

$ /pz/SFW/snapssh/bin/ssh -V
OpenSSH_7.8p1-snap20180813, OpenSSL 1.0.2o  27 Mar 2018

It generally works, but no Kerberos support:
$ /pz/SFW/snapssh/bin/ssh -A USER at HOST
/export/home/predrag_zecevic/.ssh/config line 22: Unsupported option 
"gssapidelegatecredentials"
/export/home/predrag_zecevic/.ssh/config line 23: Unsupported option 
"gssapiauthentication"
...

I will try to make 64 bit executable, and I am also keen to get in 
Kerberos support...

This is doable on OI, but needs more work.

Regards.
