Kevin Steves (of the OpenSSH devel team) seems to have responded;
perhaps you didn't get the message? (although it seems to have been
CCed to you as well as sent to the mailing list).

Follow Kevin's instructions and either:

  (a) send the patch to the mailing list, or

  (b) open a bug report at http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/, including a
      description of the patch (but not the patch itself, yet).  Then,
      query bugs for your new bug ID, and add the patch as an
      attachment.
