I was going to do this for Debian 12 (bookworm) which is the only 
affected Debian release, but then realized that I already did it in 
December 2024 and forgot about it. :-)

Any reason you didn't include the documentation changes from 
https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=aee54878255d71bf93aa6e91bbd4eb1825c0d1b9 
as well?  Encouraging distributors to keep that in sync seems like a 
good idea (and when I cherry-picked the new alias into Debian I included 
the documentation changes).

Thanks,
